Equipment

  • Shot Glass
  • Jigger or Measuring Cup
  • Cocktail Shaker
  • Cocktail Strainer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 oz Blue Raspberry Pucker
  • 1 oz 1oz Vodka
  • 2-3 pieces Blue Raspberry Warhead Candies

Instructions
 

  • Unwrap 1-2 candies and crush these to a medium grade powder. This will be you rim garnish. (We found It works best to use a durable freezer bag and hammer to crush fast with minimal mess)
  • Take a lime or lemon wedge and wipe along the rim of your shot glasses and rim with warhead powder you just prepared.
  • Fill your shaker tin with ice and add both your liquid ingredients.
  • Take 1 unwrapped Warhead Candy and place this in your shaker tin.
  • Shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds. (We want to get a good shake here but note were shaking just to remove the outer layer of sour from the candy, no need to crush or shake until it’s dissolved).
  • Strain into your shot glass and enjoy!

Notes

Pro Tips: If you want your shot to be a little sweeter, you can always add in a splash of simple syrup.
Extra sour? Ok! Before your shake process feel free to toss in a few extra Warhead candies, this is sure to kick this drink up a notch.
Too Sour? Try this recipe on ice in a rocks glass, top it off with a splash of sprite for the perfect fruity tart cocktail.
