How to Make the White Tea Shot 🍹

Making this shot is ridiculously easy—you’ll be shaking up drinks like a pro in no time! Here’s how:

Pour in:
✔️ Vodka for that clean, crisp base.
✔️ Peach Schnapps to bring in the fruity sweetness.
✔️ Sour Mix to add a tangy, citrusy balance.

Step 3: Shake It Like You Mean It! 🕺

Pop the lid on and shake it vigorously for about 10-15 seconds—you want everything well-mixed and super chilled.

Step 4: Strain & Pour 🍸

Using a strainer, pour the mixture evenly into shot glasses. It should be smooth, slightly frothy, and beautifully pale in color.

Step 5: Add a Fizzy Finish 🫧

Top each shot with a splash of lemon-lime soda (or club soda) for that light, refreshing fizz.

Step 6: Cheers & Enjoy! 🥂

And that’s it! Your White Tea Shot is ready to be sipped and enjoyed. Take the shot straight, or sip it slowly—it’s that good!

Pro Tips for Making the Perfect White Tea Shot 🔥

Want to take your White Tea Shot to the next level? Here are some insider tips to help you make the best version of this cocktail every single time:

🍸 Use High-Quality Vodka

Since vodka is the base of this shot, go for a smooth, good-quality brand. A cheap vodka might make the shot taste a little harsh, and we definitely don’t want that!

❄️ Chill Everything for Extra Smoothness

Want your shot to be extra refreshing? Chill your vodka and peach schnapps ahead of time, and use a metal cocktail shaker to keep everything super cold while shaking.

🫧 Don’t Skip the Fizz!

That little splash of lemon-lime soda (or club soda) at the end makes a BIG difference. It lightens up the shot and gives it a more refreshing taste. If you like a little more fizz, go ahead and add a bit more soda—no one’s judging! 😏

🍑 Adjust the Sweetness to Your Taste

Like it sweeter? Add a touch more peach schnapps.
Prefer it more tart? Use extra sour mix or squeeze in a little fresh lemon juice for a zesty twist. 🍋

🧊 Shake it Like a Pro

A good shake (10-15 seconds) is key to making the shot smooth, frothy, and well-mixed. If your arms aren’t a little tired afterward, shake it a few more seconds! 😆

🍋 Try a Fun Garnish!

Want to make your shot extra fancy? Garnish the rim of your shot glass with sugar, or pop a tiny lemon wedge on the rim for a cute touch.

🥶 Make a Frozen Version!

Throw everything into a blender with crushed ice, blend for a few seconds, and serve in a chilled shot glass for a slushy, ultra-refreshing twist!

Make Ahead & Storage Tips 🛠️

If you’re hosting a party or just want to prep ahead, here’s how to store your White Tea Shot for later.

🏆 Can You Make a White Tea Shot in Advance?

Yes! You can absolutely pre-mix the vodka, peach schnapps, and sour mix ahead of time. Just store it in the fridge until you’re ready to shake and serve. Don’t add soda until the last minute so it stays fizzy!

🧊 Storing Leftovers

If you made too much (unlikely, but hey, it happens! 😆), here’s what to do:

✔️ Refrigerate It – Store any leftover mix in an airtight container or jar in the fridge for up to 2 days. Shake well before serving!

✔️ Keep It Chilled – If you have a cocktail dispenser, you can store the mixture over ice for a few hours at a party.

❄️ Can You Freeze a White Tea Shot?

Yes! Here’s how:

🥶 Freeze it in ice cube trays – Pour the mix into ice cube trays and freeze. Pop a few cubes into a glass, top with soda, and let them melt for a fun, icy cocktail!

🍑 Make a Boozy Slushie – Blend the frozen cubes with a splash of soda for a delicious frozen drink.

🔥 How to Reheat (If Needed)

Okay, you probably won’t be “reheating” a shot (unless you’re into warm cocktails… no judgment! 😆), but if your mix is too cold from the fridge or freezer, just let it sit for a few minutes at room temp before shaking and serving.

FAQs About White Tea Shots 🤔

Does a White Tea Shot actually contain white tea?

Nope! Despite the name, a White Tea Shot has no actual white tea in it. The name comes from its light, pale color, which resembles brewed white tea. The main ingredients are vodka, peach schnapps, sour mix, and lemon-lime soda!

What’s the difference between a White Tea Shot and a Green Tea Shot?

The main difference is the alcohol base:

White Tea Shot = Vodka 🍸 (clean, neutral taste)
Green Tea Shot = Whiskey 🥃 (richer, slightly bolder taste)
Both have peach schnapps and sour mix, but the White Tea Shot is lighter and fruitier, while the Green Tea Shot is a bit stronger and warmer due to the whiskey.

Can I make a non-alcoholic version?

Absolutely! If you want a mocktail version, just swap out the alcohol for these:

Vodka → White grape juice or coconut water
Peach Schnapps → Peach nectar or peach syrup
Sour Mix → Lemon juice + simple syrup
Soda → Lemon-lime soda or sparkling water
Shake it up just like the regular version, and enjoy a refreshing, alcohol-free White Tea Shot! 🍑✨

Can I make a big batch for a party?

Yes! If you’re serving a crowd, mix a larger batch in a pitcher:

Combine vodka, peach schnapps, and sour mix in the pitcher.
Keep it chilled in the fridge until serving.
When ready to serve, shake individual portions with ice for the best flavor and add soda just before pouring into shot glasses! 🍹🎉
