Vegas Bomb
About the Vegas Bomb
Peach schnapps, Canadian whisky and coconut rum shaken together, then dropped shot-first into a splash of cranberry juice topped with energy drink. It is loud, fruity and unapologetic — invented for the strip and still played in casino bars nationwide. Line the small glass on top of the pint, drop, and drink fast before it fizzes over. Not subtle. Not trying to be.
Substitutions
- Skip the energy drink and serve as a straight shaken shot.
- Club soda for a lighter, lower-sugar bomb.
Batch version
For 12, batch the shot portion; pour energy drink to order.
FAQ
Do I have to use an energy drink?
No — it's optional. Many bars serve the shaken portion on its own.
