Notes

Substitutes:

• Jameson Irish Whiskey: Any other Irish whiskey will do the trick if you don't have Jameson on hand. I've also used bourbon for a sweeter profile.
• Peach Schnapps: Apricot brandy is a good alternative if you're out of Peach Schnapps. It's slightly less sweet but still brings that fruity essence.
• Sour Mix: You can simply mix sugar and lemon juice to make yourself a homemade sour mix.

Making it Vegan:

Good news! The Green Tea Shot is vegan-friendly as it contains no animal products. Ensure that your sour mix is vegan (some brands may use animal-derived products). Enjoy your vegan cocktail!

It’s easy to make as it only requires mixing the ingredients in the proper proportions. Its unique flavor profile, which combines the smoothness of Irish whiskey with the sweetness of peach schnapps and the tanginess of sour mix and soda, makes it a popular choice at bars and parties.
