Green Tea Shot Recipe (Jameson Whiskey Cocktail)
Makes 4 shots
Ingredients
- 4 Ounces Jameson Irish Whiskey
- 4 Ounces Peach Schnapps
- 4 Ounces Sweet & Sour Mix
- 1 Ounce Lemon Lime Soda (optional)
- Lime Wedges (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Add the Irish whiskey, peach schnapps, and sweet and sour mix to a cocktail shaker. Do not add ice yet; you want to combine the liquids first so everything is evenly distributed before the chill hits.4 Ounces Jameson Irish Whiskey, 4 Ounces Peach Schnapps, 4 Ounces Sweet & Sour Mix
- Fill the shaker about halfway with ice, secure the lid firmly, and shake hard for 10 to 15 seconds. You will feel the outside of the shaker go ice-cold and slightly frosted; that is when you know it is ready. Do not under-shake; a properly chilled shot should be noticeably colder than room-temperature liquid, and that chill is part of what makes the flavor balance work.
- Pour evenly across 4 shot glasses. The liquid should be pale golden-yellow, slightly cloudy from the shaking. If it looks flat and clear, your sweet and sour mix may be thin; a good shake with fresh citrus mix gives it that slightly opaque look.
- If you are using lemon-lime soda, add just a small splash to each glass right before serving. Pour it gently down the side of the glass so you preserve the bubbles. This step is optional; skip it if you want a cleaner, stronger shot.1 Ounce Lemon Lime Soda
- A fresh lime wedge perched on the rim of each glass is the standard finish. Serve immediately; these do not hold well once poured.Lime Wedges
Notes
Can I make green tea shots ahead of time? Yes. Mix the whiskey, schnapps, and sour mix in a pitcher and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Shake with ice and pour when ready to serve. Do not add soda ahead of time.
