Tropical island shots are perfect for this wonderful summer weather and even better for fun tiki parties.

The Tiki Torch

What you will need:

• 1 Solo Cup or cocktail shaker

• 1 spoon

• 3-ounce shooter shot glass (a tall and skinny shot glass)

• 1 ounce New Amsterdam Coconut Vodka

• 2 ounces pineapple juice

• Rose’s Grenadine Syrup (only a few drops for color per shot required)

What to do:

1. Pour the New Amsterdam Coconut Vodka into the cup or shaker.

2. Add the pineapple juice to the vodka.

3. Gently stir or shake the New Amsterdman Coconut Vodka and juice mixture.

4. Pour mixture into shot glass. Be sure to save plenty of room at the top of the glass for the grenadine and to avoid spilling.

5. Don’t over-pour the grenadine — doing so will make the drink extremely sweet, syrupy and induce an unpleasant hangover the following morning. Using the back of the spoon, carefully and slowly pour just a few drops of grenadine on top of the shot glass for a gradient effect.

Sex on the Beach

What you will need:

• 1 Solo Cup or cocktail shaker

• 1 shot glass of desired size (normally 1.5 ounces. each)

• 1 ounce UV Peach Vodka

• 2 ounces pineapple juice

• 2 ounces orange juice

• 2 ounces cranberry juice

What to do:

1. Pour the UV Peach Vodka into the cup or shaker. If you accidentally pour too much, you can always pour the vodka into the bottle.

2. Add the pineapple, orange and cranberry juice to the vodka.

3. Gently stir or shake UV Peach Vodka and juice mixture.

4. Pour mixture into the shot glass and serve.

Bonfire

What you will need:

•1 Solo Cup or cocktail shaker

• 2-ounce shot glass

• 1 spoon

• Box of matches or a lighter

• 1/2 ounce Fireball Cinnamon Whisky

• 1 1/2 ounces Coca-Cola

• Cruzan 151 Rum (only a splash)

What to do:

1. Pour the Fireball Cinnamon Whisky into the cup or shaker.

2. Add the Coca-Cola to the whisky.

3. Gently stir the alcohol and soda mixture. Do not shake. The carbonation will cause a very sticky mess when attempting to pour.

4. Pour mixture into the shot glass.

5. Do not over-pour the Cruzan 151 Rum. It will make the drink extremely strong and dangerous to consume and ignite.

6. Using the back of the spoon, carefully and quickly pour just a splash of Cruzan 151 Rum onto of the shot glass. The goal when adding the Cruzan 151 Rum is to have it sit at the top of the shot.

7. After pouring the Cruzan 151 Rum, use the box of matches or lighter to ignite the Cruzan 151 Rum.

8. Serve immediately. Blow out the flame before consuming, Steve-O.
