Anyone else find that the single cream just sinks to the bottom?
How do you float it.. Although it creates a look with the white at the bottom

Double (heavy) cream is easier to float, but whichever cream you use, the trick is to whip it or shake it to get air into the cream. Then pouring down the handle of a flat-end bar spoon is my preferred method of layering the cream over the cocktail.
