Instructions
1
Prep the Shaker: Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes.
2
Pour: Add the Whiskey, Peach Schnapps, and Sour Mix. Do not add the soda yet (carbonation creates pressure and will make the shaker explode).
3
Shake: Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. You want the drink to be ice-cold and slightly diluted.
4
Strain & Top: Strain the mixture evenly into two shot glasses. Top each glass with a splash of soda for fizz. Serve immediately.
Expert Tip: Make Your Own Sour Mix
Store-bought sour mix is often syrupy and artificial. For a "Gold Standard" shot, mix equal parts Fresh Lemon Juice, Fresh Lime Juice, and Simple Syrup. This makes the drink taste brighter, fresher, and less cloying.
