Notes

Sugar rim: Instead of just adding the sugar to the lemon chaser, you could also prepare the shot glass with sugar. To accomplish this, add granulated sugar to a shallow plate. Then add water or lemon juice to the rim of the shot glass. Once you’ve added the water, place the shot glass rim in the sugar to coat it.

Fun birthday cake: To make it look more celebratory, you could make a colorful shot rim. You’ll use the same method as you would for a classic sugar rim, but use colored sugar or even small sprinkles to coat the rim.

Creamy chocolate cake: To make a smoother, creamier recipe, you can mix heavy cream into the mixture. Vodka doesn’t curdle dairy, so you don’t even have to worry. Just stir 1 ounce heavy cream in with the alcohol ingredients before pouring them into the shot glass. It helps cut the strong alcohol flavor, and smooths out the shot as a whole. Feel free to add shaved chocolate, a dash of cocoa powder, colored sugar, or sprinkles over the top of the whipped cream as a fun decoration.
