Detailed description
Alabama Slammer Shot is a classic party shots built around whiskey. Southern sweetness meets bar-book nostalgia in one quick, red-orange hit.
The build centers on 1/2 oz amaretto, 1/2 oz sloe gin, 1/2 oz Southern Comfort, and splash of orange juice. In the glass, amaretto brings cherry-almond sweetness, sloe gin lends a dusky berry tone, and Southern Comfort rounds it out with warm, orange-kissed spice.
It comes together in 3 minutes and is served in a shot glass. This is a fast 3 minutes build, so it works best when everything is measured before you start.
