I just love serving White Tea Shots when the weather starts to warm up! They're easy, quick, and made with just three main ingredients: peach schnapps, vodka, and sweet 'n sour mix (or Sprite). It's light, sweet, citrusy, and super refreshing! (Perfect for a girls' night or your next summer get-together.)

Long gone are my college bar-hopping days but I will say, I DO still love to serve shots when entertaining. It immediately lightens the vibe and brings a smile to everyone's face.
Shots don't need to be tacky or tasteless at all. That's why I love White Tea Shots. They are more sophisticated and tasteful like my Mexican Candy Shot whereas my Scooby Snack Shot is a bit more fun and spunky 😬.
