Kopstootje

(Little Head Butt, Kopstoot)

Kopstootje is a Dutch drinking ritual which can be found in almost every bar in the country. First, the bartender fills a tulip-shaped shot glass with Genever (old world gin) to the point where it almost overflows. The customers then place their hands behind their back, bend over, and slowly slurp the top off of the shot.


The rest of the shot can be gulped down, followed by a sip of beer served on the side. The flavors complement and enhance one another while remaining distinctive, without masking the other flavor.
