Shots
Shot Recipes are under 2 ounces and served in a shot glass. In most cases it is just one ore two ingredients poured straight from the bottle into the glass.
Shooters
Shooter Recipes are usually just under 4 ounces and served in a rocks glass. Shooter Recipes are also commonly mixed in a cocktail shaker with ice and strained into the glass. Some Shooters are strained into a cocktial glass and called a Martini.
Both shots and Shooters are drunk down in one gulp. Some people still sip on Shooters even though the longer the cold liquid sits in a glass with out ice the warmer and less desireable it taste.
Shots and shooters cocktail recipes are just one more way to enjoy your mixed cocktails. Instead of mixing the cocktail in a glass you mix it in a cocktail shaker and strain out the ice. Many Cocktail Recipes can be made into shots or shooters the most important thing to remember when converting your cocktail recipe is to add any carbonated mixer to the serving glass after, otherwise you lose the bubbles.
