Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Select shot glasses and rim with black sugar sprinkles. To do this, moisten the rim of each glass with a little lemon-lime soda, then dip the rim into the black sugar sprinkles until fully coated.

  2. 2

    Mix the Base Layer

    In a mixing glass, combine the green apple schnapps and lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to mix.

Layering the Shot

  1. 3

    Pour the Base Layer

    Carefully pour the mixed base layer into the prepared shot glasses, filling them halfway.

  2. 4

    Add Blue Curaçao Layer

    Using a bar spoon, slowly pour 1 tablespoon of blue curaçao over the back of the spoon into each shot glass, allowing it to float on top of the base layer.

  3. 5

    Finish with Grenadine

    Next, slowly pour 1 tablespoon of grenadine syrup over the back of the spoon into each shot glass, letting it sink to create a layered effect.

Garnishing

  1. 6

    Add Gummy Worms

    Place one gummy worm in each shot glass, letting it drape over the rim for a fun presentation.
