If you’re looking for a refreshing twist on the usual shot, the White Tea Shot is it. Despite the name, there’s no tea involved—just a smooth mix of vodka, peach schnapps, sour mix, and soda.
The best part? Its perfectly balanced sweet and tangy flavor that’s light but still packs a punch. It’s great for summer parties, casual hangouts, or when you want something lighter than whiskey shots.
I first had one at a friend’s barbecue, and it instantly became a favorite. The fruity taste was perfect in the heat, and it was so simple to make in batches.
No fuss, just shake and pour! Plus, it’s hard to resist a shot that’s as fun to drink as it is to make.
With its low alcohol content and refreshing flavor, the White Tea Shot is a crowd-pleaser that’s trending for a reason. Try it at your next get-together!
