The Southern Blues shot is a nod to the deep American South, where music and spirits often intertwine. It's a favorite among those who appreciate a sweet yet potent kick in their libations.
The Southern Blues shot is sweet with a fruity blueberry note that complements the smooth, peachy flavor of Southern Comfort. It's a strong shot with a velvety finish that leaves a warm sensation.
Southern Comfort is the backbone of this shot, providing a smooth, whiskey-flavor with hints of fruit and spice. It balances the sweet and tangy taste of blueberry schnapps. Using less might not give the necessary warmth, while more could overpower the delicate fruitiness.
Blueberry Schnapps adds a vibrant fruit flavor that ties in perfectly with the Southern Comfort. It's what gives our 'Southern Blues' its signature blueberry kick. Without it, the shot would lose its fruity charm. If swapped for another fruit schnapps, such as raspberry, it would create a different but equally tantalizing flavor profile.
