- Hi, welcome back to The Cocktail Blog,
I'm Steve the Bartender, and today I'm gonna show
Shooters Volume 2.
I was hesitant about doing this video but,
the person behind the camera,
they wanted to punish me for some reason
because we're doing volume 2,
and, I didn't get to pick the shooters.
Most of them are relatively easy, citrus-y shots as
opposed to last time.
If you missed the last video check it out here,
they're all more creamy shots with a lot of Bailey's in it,
finished with a pint of Guinness which curdled my
stomach, but hopefully these should be relatively easy.
So some of these are shaken shots,
so therefore you can mix a whole bunch in one shaker
and pour them all out, you can get up to ten shots out
of a shaker quite easily so, they're perfect for parties.
So, first I'm going to show you how to make a Kamikaze.
Apparently this one originated from World War II,
in Japan, created by American soldiers?
Maybe, if I'm wrong let me know.
So, this one is two ounces of your preferred vodka.
And I don't know why I'm making multiple shots in
the one, because that means that I have to drink more.
But, today I'm gonna use the vodka O which is Australian,
well, it's an Australian owned vodka
but I believe it's made in, New Zealand.
Then, follow that up with Triple Sec or Cointreau.
So, 3/4 of an ounce, 22.5 mL.
This is probably gonna extend out to at least three shots
and 3/4 of an ounce, 22.5 mL, of fresh lime juice.
Add a little bit of ice, give it a shake,
and strain into your shot glass.
(ice rattling)
So, obviously with these measurements,
it's gonna make three or four shots,
so, it's designed for you and some friends,
you don't have to do all these shots by yourself.
So, strain into glass.
And there you have the Kamikaze.
If you prefer as well with these chilled shots,
you can chill the vodka, you can chill your shot glasses,
and it will stay colder longer, obviously.
So, next up I'm gonna show you how to make a Fresh Pussy,
Wet Pussy, or I'm not sure what people call it.
They call it Wet, Fresh, and French Pussy,
So, I'm just gonna stop saying that (laughs)
I'm gonna to stop saying that word,
But, this one's shaken as well so it's served cold
and it's just equal parts of vodka, peach liqueur,
and cranberry juice, with a squeeze of fresh lime.
So, we're gonna make a little bit of a smaller one,
we're going 15 mL, half an ounce, of each ingredient.
Vodka first up, second of all, your peach liqueur,
followed by cranberry juice.
(ice clattering)
So, with the shoulders you don't really need to give
it a long shake, just to chill it down,
don't really need it to add too much dilution.
Strain into your shot glass and squeeze some lime into it.
So, there you have the Wet, Fresh, or French Pussy.
Okay (laughs)
So, the next shooter is the Lemon Drop.
So this one you can either serve with a plain vodka
or a Citron vodka, Citron Absolut, whatever you prefer.
Today I'm gonna just do it with a straight vodka,
preferably, you can keep it in the fridge as well,
but if you don't have the cold vodka sitting
in your fridge at home, then you can just do
a simple work around.
Shake it over ice, stir it over ice,
and strain into your shot glass.
So, shaking's gonna cool it a lot quicker, but it's going
to add more dilution at the same time, so I just want
to chill it a little bit, give it a really quick stir.
So, if you're not using a citrus vodka,
if you want to you can do is a little squeeze
of lemon juice inside the vodka, if that's your preference.
I'm just gonna chill my vodka and strain it straight
into a shot glass, and then serve that with a lemon wedge,
covered in sugar, so if you haven't had one of these before,
the balance of the sourness and the sugar, the sourness
and the sweet I should say, really, disguises the vodka,
and especially if you've got cold vodka.
This is probably the most awkward way I could do it.
Dip.
Pour the sugar on to apply it and do it that way,
is gonna be much easier.
And there you have the Lemon Drop.
Next shot, is the Apocalypse Now.
Actually, I'm gonna read you the description of this one
because, someone's definitely out to get me.
Admittedly, it's not one of the best tasting shots
you could mix up, but it is an experience to say the least.
As seen in recipes like the Cement Mixer,
which you can see in my past video,
taste was not always the first consideration.
If you are looking for a quick, potent, novelty shooter,
it would be one to try, there's just no promise
that you'll like it.
Thank you (laughs)
Equal measures of Tequila and Vermouth,
that sounds horrible.
So, I'm gonna measure out (laughing)
and now it begins.
I'm gonna measure out...
15 mL of Reposado Tequila,
15 mL of dry vermouth, so half an ounce.
Give it a brief shake, before layering Bailey's on top.
(ice clattering)
Real quick shake, just chilling it down slightly.
Oh, that's horrible.
(laughing)
Oh, fucking hell, that's disgusting.
(laughing)
That's so gross.
Now to finish the Apocalypse Now, layer on the Irish Cream
onto your tequila shots, and you can use a pour
on the top of the bottle to make it easier if you like.
(humming)
The Bailey's too heavy, and it sinks straight to the bottom.
Or it could just be me, I don't know.
Either way it's gonna taste terrible.
And, last shot that everyone's familiar with,
is a Jager Bomb.
Pour out a chilled shot of Jager into a glass,
- [Woman] And then Red Bull.
- And pour out half a Red Bull into a horrible glass.
So there you have five shooter recipes.
You've got the Kamikaze, the Fresh Pussy, Lemon Drop,
the Apocalypse Now, and a Jager Bomb.
So, shooter number one, the Kamikaze, cheers.
Pretty easy to drink, not too bad, probably a little bit
too limey for my liking, and I love citrus drinks so,
probably drop the citrus just a little bit.
Then the Fresh Pussy.
Cheers.
Really light, sweet, tiny bit of tartness
from the cranberry juice but I'd probably say,
more on the sweeter side.
I might prefer these shooters rather than doing creamy,
Bailey's shots, this sits a lot easier.
Next up, the Lemon Drop shooter.
Chilled vodka, served with a lemon and sugar.
The vodka had a chance to warm up a little bit so,
warm vodka is not the greatest, but finishing off
with that sweet and sour piece of lemon,
it just hides the vodka completely so,
you wanna taste that as quick as you can.
Next up, the Apocalypse Now.
This one I'm really dreading because, I accidentally
poured too much in it.
I may have kept it in the footage depending on the edit,
but, I did end up drinking a little bit out of it,
because I had to much in the shot glass so I could actually
fit the Bailey's in.
And the tequila vermouth combination,
is not pleasant whatsoever.
Cheers.
Actually, once you put the Bailey's in it,
it kinda sweetens it up.
It's not as bad as I was anticipating,
definitely not pleasant,
but not horrible.
Still the worst out of all four so far.
Next up, Jager Bomb.
Drop the Jager bomb.
Drop the Jager bomb?

Cheers.

- [Woman] Why didn't you just grab the Jager bomb?
We should probably do it again.
- No.
