Does refrigeration influence the layering of the ingredients here? I layered these at room temp and the Cherry Heering sat at the bottom... This was not too shabby for a shot, but probably much more pleasing chilled. (22 Jan 2023, 11:54a)

Just tried and found the same. Either our original was with another cherry brandy or Licor 43 may have slightly reduced sugar content. Hence, I've rewritten the recipe with cherry brandy first and will re-photo ASAP. Many thanks for bringing this to my attention.
