Nacho Cheese Liquor is Now a Thing Thanks to Doritos
Just when you think you’ve heard it all— pickle beer, bacon vodka, crab whiskey— a Danish distillery created a new catastrophic cocktail. Nacho cheese Dorito-flavored liqueur. The folks at Empirical Spirits describe the taste as nacho cheesy, corn tostada, umami, and salty. The origin story actually makes it sound kind of fun.
A bottle of Doritos x Empirical retails for $65 USD, but it’s already sold out. Pre-orders for the new beverage just started December 13, 2023 so there could likely be another round. In the meantime, here are some recipes you can start prepping for. Who knows… maybe we’ll get a Cool Ranch style spirit next. (Ugh, imagine getting sick after a night of that!)
