Water Moccasin Shot – A Beautiful Mess

The Water Moccasin Shot is a sweet and smooth whiskey-based shot. It’s made with whiskey, peach schnapps, sweet-sour mix, and triple sec. Named after a viper, this drink proves that some shot and cocktail recipes just need an edgy name without being edgy at all. (Related articles: Sex on the Beach, Butter Nipples, Blowjob Shot)

Tips on how to make it

• Crown Royal Canadian Whiskey seems to be a popular choice for this recipe, I used Jack Daniel’s, but a Jameson Whiskey variation would also be delicious to try.
• Variations to try – For a fruity variation, add half an ounce of pineapple juice, for a fizzy variation add lemon-lime soda on top, or try adding different flavored schnapps to this recipe for a savory variation.
• For a fancy, elevated flavor, try adding sugar to the rim or serving in a frosted glass (freeze shot glasses for an hour before using).
