Shoot a Wild Turkey



Ingredients

1 ounce butterscotch schnapps
1/2 cup canned sweet potatoes
1 teaspoon nutmeg

Garnish/tools:
Mini marshmallows
Creme brule torch

Directions

Add whiskey, butterscotch schnapps, canned sweet potatoes and nutmeg to a blender and whir until smooth. Pour into two shooter glasses and top with mini marshmallows. Brown the marshmallows to your liking, from a golden brown to a charred, blackened patina. Let cool for a moment and then swallow drink in one gluttonous mouthful.

Tequila Shot



I always forget the order of how to take this shot, but since I am blogging it I know I will not forget.

Ingredients

1 1/2 oz tequila
lemon or lime wedge
1 pinch of salt

Directions

1) Moisten the back of your hand below the index finger (usually by licking) and pour on the salt.
2) Lick the salt off your hand.The salt lessens the burn of the tequila.
3) Drink the tequila.
4) Quickly bite the lemon or lime wedge. The sour fruit balances and enhances the flavor of the tequila.

Jell-O Shots


This is like my third or fourth time making Jell-O shots and every time I do I need to look up the recipe, and every time it is a different one. The reason is I am always unsure how to make them so I am sure to follow the directions very carefully because a strong unshotable Jell-O is gross!

I make this connection of being unsure to I feeling like a chemist mixing together a powder artificially flavored with chemicals to make one batch taste like raspberry and the other orange with hot boiling water heated up by a Bunsen Burner and letting it cool to room temperature in a beaker. Then, I carefully measure out each shot in a glass 1.5 oz. beaker then transfer it to another plastic 3 oz. beaker being careful not to drip any of the strong homogenous liquid that has an uncanny effect of making you do things you otherwise would think twice of.

Ingredients

1 (6-ounce) box of raspberry Jell-O, or other flavor of your choice
2 cups boiling water
2 cups vodka

Directions:

In a bowl, pour the boiling water over the Jello and stir until thoroughly dissolved. Cool to room temperature, then stir in the vodka. Pour the mixture into shot glasses or Jello shot cups. Refrigerate until well-set, at least 6 hours. Makes 32 1-ounce jello shots, give or take.
