Ok, I know this is one of those shots everyone has in the deep of a Saturday night. Though it’s named because drinking a Kamikaze can be suicide, this is a fun shot — and now I can make it! Nobody complained with I lined the bar with eight shot glasses and experimented on them. The first one came out with way to much triple sec, so I cut down the second time. By the third try my patrons agreed it was good.
The recipe for four shots:
3 parts vodka (any is good)
1 part triple sec
dash of Rose’s lime (or fresh if you feel up to it)
pour over ice and shake, then strain into glasses!
Bottoms up!

In lieu of Sarah Palin’s performance during Thursday’s debate, I thought I would make a shot that hit close to home–and by home, I mean Alaska.
The Alaska Pipeline is:
1/2 Canadian whiskey
1/2 Amaretto
Poured into a mixer with ice, shaken and strained into the shot glass(es).
Most of the people thought it was a little sweet, but I was serving them to a gaggle of Sunday afternoon bar flies. It’s a good girly drink with a mild bite.
For something a little more manly, try portioning it 1/3 Amaretto to 2/3 whiskey.
Enjoy!
