Detailed description
Green Tea Shot is a citrus shots built around whiskey. It tastes nothing like tea, which somehow only makes people love it more.
The build centers on 1/2 oz Irish whiskey, 1/2 oz peach schnapps, 1/2 oz sour mix, and splash of lemon-lime soda. In the glass, peach and citrus make the first impression juicy and almost tea-like, before the whiskey peeks through with a mellow, honeyed warmth.
It comes together in 3 minutes and is served in a shot glass. Serve it ice-cold and pour promptly so the citrus edge stays sharp instead of flattening out.
