Ingredients

Instructions

Mix Your Base:

  • In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine 1 oz of strawberry vodka, 2 oz of strawberry liqueur, and 1 oz of grenadine. The strawberry vodka and liqueur provide a fruity base, while the grenadine adds sweetness and a vibrant red color that echoes Deadpool’s costume.

Shake It Up:

  • Cap your shaker and give it a vigorous shake. This not only chills the contents but also ensures that the ingredients are well mixed, creating a smooth and uniform flavor throughout.

Strain and Layer:

  • Strain the mixture into a shot glass, filling it three-quarters of the way. The precise straining is crucial for making room for the final, dramatic layer of black absinthe.

Add the Finishing Touch:

  • Carefully layer a small amount of black absinthe on top. Pour it slowly over the back of a spoon to achieve a clean layer. This not only adds a herbal complexity to the drink but also creates an eye-catching contrast in colors.
  • Drink Responsibly

Notes

  • These shots are potent, blending multiple alcohols with strong flavors. Enjoy them in moderation to savor the taste and the fun.
Deadpool Shots are as unpredictable and exhilarating as the mercenary they’re named after. Perfect for fans of the Deadpool movies or anyone who enjoys a creatively crafted cocktail, these shots are sure to be a conversation starter at any gathering. Enjoy responsibly and raise a glass to the “Merc with a Mouth!”
