Vodka Gummy Bear
To take this recipe to the next level, use a gummy bear soaked in vodka as a decoration. Soak the gummy bear in vodka and soak at room temperature for 8 hours or overnight. Remove any excess vodka and use a new (plumper) vodka gummy bear as an ornament for this shot.


Instructions
In a cocktail shaker, mix 1 ounce of cherry vodka and 1 ounce of peach schnap. Next, add pineapple juice and ice.
Shake for 10-15 seconds.
Pour into a shot glass and add a splash of lemon lime soda.
Add a gummy bear for decoration. I added it to each glass edge (using a knife to cut the slit at the bottom). You can also add gummy bears inside the shot if you wish. It’s completely optional.


Tips and tips for making it
- For white gummy bear shots, use pineapple vodka and use pineapple juice. The rest of the recipes are the same. Fun fact: White gummy bears have a pineapple flavor.
- If you want a more neutral color shot, choose an invalid cherry vodka. My shot is red due to the color of cherry vodka.
- If you don’t have cherry vodka on hand, feel free to use your favorite vodka or another fruity flavor. If you want a red color, you can add a splash of grenadine.
- You can batch this recipe in advance. Store the lemon lime soda and add it when serving.
- Add sugary rims for a sweeter shot.
- Alternate: You can use Raspberry Vodka’s Sub Cherry Wodka. Pineapple juice can be used in cranberry juice or peach juice and underwear. If you don’t have a cocktail shaker, you can use a mixing glass with ice.
Variations
- White gummy bear shot recipe If you want to fine-tune this recipe into a white gummy bear, then a simple swap out decorating pineapple vodka cherry vodka and white gummy bear.
- Gummy Bear Cocktail If you prefer cocktails to drink shooters, double this recipe and serve it in a martini glass or a glass of rock with ice cubes. And a gummy bear decoration!
