This post is a compilation of all different kinds of party shots. I call them party shots because a post titled shots can have so many different meanings. Obviously for a blog about cocktails, it’s exactly what you think it is. Plus, when I think of doing shots, it means I’m ready to party.
Recipes for party shots
Tootsie roll shot

1/2 ounce coffee liqueur
1/2 ounce orange juice
In a shaker with ice, combine ingredients. Shake well. Pour into a shot glass and marvel over the fact that these 2 ingredients together actually taste like a tootsie roll.

1/2 ounce cinnamon whiskey(I used fireball)
