Ingredients
2 oz blue curaçao
1 oz fresh lime juice
½ oz vodka
Optional: ½ oz sour mix or a pinch of citric acid (for extra zing)
Optional: A splash of simple syrup (for a sweeter finish)
Optional: Sugar (for rimming the glass)
Instructions
Place your shot glasses in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill.
In a shaker filled with ice, combine the vodka, lime juice, and (if using) sour mix or citric acid. Shake until well chilled.
Pour 1 oz of blue curaçao into the bottom of each shot glass to form the first layer.
Slowly pour the lime-vodka mixture over the back of a spoon to float it on top of the blue curaçao, creating a layered effect.
(Optional) Rim each glass with sugar before pouring, or add a splash of simple syrup to the shaker if you prefer a less tart finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet-sour kick!
Notes
Fresh lime juice is key here—skip the bottled stuff if you want that bright, clean citrus flavor.
For a real “Warhead” pucker, add a pinch of citric acid. Just a little goes a long way!
Want to batch it? Scale up the lime-vodka mixture in a shaker bottle and layer to order.
These are best served ice-cold, so keep your ingredients chilled if you’re making a round for friends.
