The Extraterrestrial Shot is a visually stunning, layered shot that’s out of this world. Featuring sweet melon liqueur, smooth Irish cream, and the bite of vodka, this drink’s three layers are a real eye-catcher. For those who like a little extra excitement, you can top it off with Bacardi 151, light it on fire, and watch as your shot transforms into a fiery masterpiece. Whether you’re looking to impress your friends or add some flair to your next party, this shot is a must-try.
Ingredients
- 1 oz Irish Cream
- 1 oz Melon Liqueur
- 1 oz Vodka
- OP Rum
Instructions
Start with Melon Liqueur:
- Pour 1 oz of melon liqueur (like Midori) into the bottom of your shot glass.
Layer the Irish Cream:
- Gently pour 1 oz of Irish cream over the back of a spoon to layer it on top of the melon liqueur.
Add the Vodka:
- Carefully layer 1 oz of vodka on top of the Irish cream, again using the back of a spoon to keep the layers distinct.
Optional: Top with Rum and Light:
- For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of OP rum (like Bacardi 151) on top. Light it carefully, let it burn for a moment, and blow it out before drinking.
Notes
The Extraterrestrial Shot is all about the layers. Pouring the liquids slowly over the back of a spoon ensures that they don’t mix, giving you that signature three-layered look. The combination of melon liqueur, Irish cream, and vodka creates a sweet, creamy, and strong shot that’ll definitely make an impression. If you’re feeling adventurous, the optional Bacardi 151 adds not only a fiery show but also a bold finish to the drink.
Make sure to blow out the flame before taking the shot, and if you prefer a non-flammable version, simply skip the rum. This shot is perfect for themed parties or anyone looking for something a little different in their drink lineup.
