About this drink
The Skumbanan Shot is a Danish bar invention that tries to capture the flavour of the skumbanan, a classic Danish sweet of banana-flavoured marshmallow coated in chocolate, in liquid form. The creamy vanilla of Licor 43 with the intense banana of Pisang Ambon hits that sweet-shop nostalgia surprisingly well, and a splash of chocolate milk gives the round, soft finish. Some use Jägermeister instead of Licor 43, but the result is more herbal and less true to the original.
