Tips
- Chill the Ingredients: For an extra cold shot, chill the vodka and schnapps in the refrigerator before mixing.
- Use Fresh Ice: Fresh ice will keep the shot colder longer and prevent dilution.
- Sweet and Sour Mix: If you don't have sweet and sour mix, you can make your own by combining equal parts lemon juice, lime juice, simple syrup, and water.
- Gummy Bear Infusion: For an added twist, soak gummy bears in vodka for a few hours before serving and use them as a garnish.
- Customize Flavors: Experiment with different flavors of vodka or schnapps to create your own unique version of the Gummy Bear Shot.
