Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make Blue Peach Slammer shots in advance?

Yes! You can pre-mix the alcohol and mixers (Blue Curaçao, coconut rum, peach schnapps, sour mix, and lemonade) and store the blend in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just shake with fresh ice before serving so it stays nice and chilled.

Can I make a big batch for a party?

Definitely! This shot is super easy to scale up. Multiply each ingredient by the number of guests, pour the mix into a pitcher, and shake or stir with ice as needed. Strain into individual shooter glasses right before serving.

What can I use instead of sour mix?

If you don’t have sour mix, you can make your own with ½ oz fresh lemon juice + ¼ oz simple syrup. It’s a quick, fresh alternative with the perfect sweet-tart balance.

Is the Blue Peach Slammer sweet or sour?

It’s tropical and balanced—you’ll taste the sweetness from the peach schnapps and coconut rum, with just the right amount of tartness from the sour mix and lemonade. It’s fruity, punchy, and very smooth going down.

Can I serve this over ice instead of as a shot?

Absolutely! This recipe makes a fantastic mini cocktail too. Just double the ingredients and serve over crushed ice in a rocks glass with a straw. It’s great for sipping at a summer party or beach-themed event.

What kind of lemonade works best?

Use store-bought lemonade for ease, or fresh-squeezed if you’re going artisanal. For extra flair, try pink lemonade or even sparkling lemonade to give it a fizzy edge!

Can I make it a layered shot?

Yes, you can! To layer it, pour the heaviest ingredients first (Blue Curaçao), then slowly layer the peach schnapps and coconut rum over the back of a spoon. Finish with sour mix and a touch of lemonade. Just know it takes a steady hand and chilled ingredients to keep those layers distinct!
