Black Tea Shot

I saw some people say that the Black Tea Shot gets its name from its color and taste, and I agree! The drink has a dark amber color that resembles a mix of black tea and cola. That’s how it earned its name. So next time you see a drink with an interesting name, don’t judge it until you check the ingredients.

I used Jameson Irish Whiskey, peach schnapps, sour mix, and a splash of cola to make this Black Tea Shot. The process was easy, just like any other shot drink I’ve made before. The flavor was sweet with a strong tangy taste, which is what I really enjoyed about it. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and I was really satisfied with the taste.
