Sweet, fruity shot tasting like the candy.

Ingredients

• 1 oz Vanilla Vodka
• 1 oz Watermelon Pucker
• 1 oz Sweet and Sour Mix
• Pink Sugar optional for garnish
• Pink Starburst optional for garnish

Instructions

• Edge the shot glasses with corn syrup and pink sugar. This will give the shot glasses a pink, sparkly rim that makes the cocktail even more festive.
• Combine 1 oz. of vanilla vodka, 1 oz. of watermelon pucker, and 1 oz. of sweet and sour mix in a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
• Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. This will ensure that the ingredients are well mixed and chilled.
• Strain the cocktail into the prepared shot glasses. Be careful not to spill any of the liquid as you pour.
• Optional: Garnish each shot with a small piece of Pink Starburst candy. This will add an extra pop of color and sweetness to the cocktail. Serve and enjoy!
