Detailed description
Vegas Bomb is a bombs and drop shots built around whiskey. This is pure nightlife theater, loud enough to deserve its own display shelf.
The build centers on 1/2 oz Canadian whisky, 1/2 oz peach schnapps, 1/2 oz cranberry juice, and optional 1 oz energy drink for dropping. In the glass, cranberry and peach keep it smooth and easy, while the whisky gives it a darker center that turns rowdy when paired with the energy drink.
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.
