We all know that feeling that takes over your body as soon as you down a shot. It’s not the best feeling in the world. After you take your shot, you usually chase it down with something like grapefruit juice or soda to eliminate the taste as fast as you possibly can. Who actually likes the taste of a vodka shot anyway? Why do we torture ourselves when we can just order or whip up one of these delicious and tasty shots? These ingenious concoctions don’t require guzzling back a gallon of orange juice to get the taste out of your mouth. These are shots with flavors you actually want to taste. However, beware. Some of these shots are so good they taste like popsicles, so make sure to keep count or else you might not make it to the bar!
