Variation
Give your Hoochie Mama Shots a twist to match your vibe:
-
Frozen Hoochie Mama: Blend all ingredients with ice for a slushy, beach-style shot.
-
Spicy Mama: Add a dash of jalapeño syrup or a pinch of chili salt to the rim.
-
Sour Mama: Add ½ oz sour mix or lemon juice for extra tang.
-
Berry Bombshell: Use raspberry vodka and a splash of blueberry syrup for a berry twist.
-
Mocktail Mama: Omit the alcohol and use flavored seltzer, cranberry, pineapple, and a splash of coconut water.
COOKING Note
-
Use freshly chilled juice for the best flavor and balance—overly sweet store-bought juices can overpower the drink.
-
Peach schnapps and coconut rum add the tropical sweetness, so go easy on additional sugar unless you love it sweet.
-
Shake with plenty of ice to get the mixture extra cold and frothy.
-
Don’t overfill the shaker—a good seal and room to shake is key.
-
For a pinker hue, increase cranberry juice or grenadine. For more golden, boost the pineapple.
