Happy Pride weekend Columbus!!!! And Pride month everyone not in Columbus! Please don't judge this super low quality picture, however I had to share with you one of my very favorite bar trick recipes which just happens to be PERFECT for the occasion... RAINBOW SHOTS! I learned how to make these when I was bartending at the Pub in Athens and they are with out a doubt the most requested shot recipe I've ever gotten from fellow bartenders. They actually change colors as you pour them down the line. This literally blows minds... especially those minds who have been consuming alcohol for the better part of the day. So please enjoy and don't be discouraged if it takes you a few.... dozen attempts before you nail them. My first several attempts all came out a greenish-brown color. Gross. Just keep practicing my little mixologists!
Also special shout out to one of my best friends, Ryann, who taught me how to make these and who I never once made more perfect Rainbow Shots than (girls got a gift).
