Wake The Dead Shot

A simple coffee based shot that is a good wake me up. With the combination of coffee liqueur, espresso and tequila it is delicious. 

Its almost Halloween, so this recipe is fitting for the season. It is a delicious coffee flavored shot that you can make ahead of time and good party starter. There are a few Halloween inspired recipes such as, The Poison Apple Martini, The Grave Digger, Smoky Green Goblin and Bloody Mary. 

To make this shot you need any coffee liqueur, espresso and tequila. The coffee flavor is so strong that you don’t even taste the tequila making these shots a great party starter and very good. The beauty about this recipe is that you can make it ahead of time and enjoy the shots chilled. 

Food Pairing –

This is a shot hence it doesn’t need to be served with anything. You can serve this drink with some brownies, or cookies to kick start a party. 

Now that we have covered how to make this Wake The Dead Shot, you can have a look at the recipe video on my socials but let’s get to it.
