Gravity Chart (Tending Bar: Shots & Layered Drinks)
When making layered drinks, also known as a Pousse Cafe, you'll need
to know which ingredients are heavier than the others. The technique
is simple; the heaviest liquor is poured into the glass first, and the
lighter ones are layered carefully on top with the lightest one on top.
This table list some common liquors, along with their Specific Gravity
that is the weight of the liquor relative to water. Higher values indicate
a heavier liquor.
