Ingredients
- 1 oz Raspberry Vodka (clear)
- 1/2 oz Peach Schnapps
- 1/2 oz Lime Juice
- 1/2 oz Blueberry Schnapps
- 1/2 oz Sugar Syrup
Instructions
Chill Your Shot Glasses:
- Begin by placing your shot glasses in the freezer to chill. A cold glass will enhance the flavors and make the shot more refreshing.
Combine the Base Ingredients:
- In a cocktail shaker, add a handful of ice to chill the mixture and slightly dilute the strong flavors for a smoother shot.
- Pour in the raspberry vodka, peach schnapps, and lime juice. Raspberry vodka provides a fruity base, peach schnapps adds a sweet layer, and lime juice introduces a refreshing tartness.
Shake the Mixture:
- Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This ensures that the ingredients are well combined and chilled.
Strain into Shot Glasses:
- Strain the mixture into the chilled shot glasses, filling them about three-quarters full. This leaves room for the final layer.
Create the Blue Gradient:
- In a separate container, mix the blueberry schnapps and sugar syrup. This combination will be used to create the visually appealing blue gradient.
- Slowly drizzle the blueberry schnapps mixture over the back of a spoon into the shot glasses. This technique helps the blueberry layer to sit on top of the raspberry-peach mix, creating a beautiful blue gradient effect.
Serve Immediately:
- Serve the shots immediately to enjoy the vibrant layers and chilled flavors.
Notes
- Garnish with a small skewer of fresh blueberries or a twist of lime peel to enhance the visual appeal and add a fresh element to the drink.
- You can adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of sugar syrup according to your taste preferences.
