What is an alligator sperm shot?

An alligator sperm shot is an equal mix of Midori and pineapple juice topped with a splash of cream. Despite its slightly inappropriate name, it has a surprisingly delicious flavor full of sweet tropical fruit with a smooth finish from the heavy cream.

The splash of heavy cream on the top of this shot leads to really smoothing out the liquor flavor from the Midori. It also adds a little creamy and sweet flavor.

Pineapple juice, of course, is exactly what it sounds like. It is juice from a pineapple. It’s best to use 100% pineapple juice and not a pineapple juice cocktail which will involve other juices being added in. Pineapple juice itself has a sweet tropical and slightly tangy flavor.

The bright green color of the shot comes from the Midori liqueur used. Midori originated in Japan and is made from two types of melons. The resulting flavor is a very sweet muskmelon or honeydew melon type flavor with an almost dry finish.

When to Make This Drink:

With its bright green color and sweet flavor this shot is fun at many occasions such as:

  • St Patrick’s Day celebrations and parties
  • college parties
  • sports parties especially those when a team has a gator mascot
  • casual get togethers
  • any celebration that’s themed with green decorations

Other dirty named cocktails include: cum in a hot tub shot, nuts and berries cocktail and the sexy alligator shot.

How to make this drink:

With three easy ingredients, you can whip this shot up in about three minutes. You do need to have a little patience when layering the cream on top of the drink.

  • Shot glasses
  • jigger
  • cocktail shaker
  • Hawthorne strainer
