This impressive-looking shot is perfect for Halloween events or any scary parties and is surprisingly simple to make.

Equipment

  • Shot Glass

Ingredients

Instructions

Fill the Shot Glass:

  • Fill a large shot glass with 2/3 oz of vodka. The vodka provides the strong base for the shot.

Add Lime Juice:

  • Add 1/3 oz of lime juice to the vodka in the shot glass. The lime juice adds a sour element that balances the sweetness of the other ingredients.

Create the Brain Effect:

  • Using a syringe or dropper, slowly add 1/3 oz of Irish cream into the shot. As the Irish cream interacts with the lime juice, it will curdle and form a brain-like structure at the bottom of the glass, creating a spooky visual effect.

Add Grenadine for Blood Effect:

  • Carefully add 3-4 drops of grenadine syrup. The grenadine will sink through the Irish cream and add a blood-like appearance to the shot.

Serve and Enjoy:

  • Serve immediately and impress your guests with the spooky and delicious Monkey Brain shot.
