Sol y Sombra is an after-dinner cocktail made with a combination of equal parts anisette and brandy. In order to prepare it, both ingredients should be shaken with ice, then strained into a brandy snifter. The name Sol y Sombra translates to Sun and Shade, referring to different types of seats at bullfights and to the colors of the drink, where brandy represents the dark shades (sombra), while the clear anisette represents sun (sol).
