Detailed description

Round Number is a citrus shots built around vodka. Bright, camera-friendly citrus energy makes this a natural fit for the world-record story.

The build centers on 3/4 oz vodka, 1/2 oz orange liqueur, 1/4 oz lemon juice, and 1/4 oz honey syrup. In the glass, honey syrup adds a gentle richness beneath the lemon and orange, making the whole shot taste warmer and silkier than its clear color suggests.

It comes together in 3 minutes and is served in a chilled shot glass. Serve it ice-cold and pour promptly so the citrus edge stays sharp instead of flattening out.
