    Royal Flush Shot: The Cocktail You Can Share

    Jump to Recipe

    The Royal Flush Shot and Cocktail is the perfect party drink for a duo or a group of friends. It’s the same recipe in either situation, just different glasses. It has a tasty blend of fruit flavors topped off with the smooth kick of Crown Royal. Let’s see why this hand is always a winner.

    What is a Royal Flush Shot and Cocktail?

    Why do we call the Royal Flush a shot and a cocktail? That’s because no matter how you prefer to drink it, as a shooter like a Rattlesnake Shot or a sipper like an Amaretto Sour, you use the same ingredients in the same amount.

    This Crown royal based drink (hence the ‘Royal” in the name) also has peach schnapps, Chambord black raspberry liqueur, and cranberry juice. Once the ingredients are combined they are shaken, similarly to martinis like a Cosmo or Key Lime Martini, until the drink is very cold and has some small ice chip in it.

    At this point, you either split it between four or five shot glasses or pour the full amount, over fresh ice, into one or two rocks glasses. It has a high enough alcohol content to give it a kick but low enough that you can responsibly enjoy a few of these over the course of a night (of course drink plenty of water and still do not drive after drinking at all).

    How to make this drink:

    Decide if you want to drink this quickly like a shooter or if you want to sit back and enjoy as a cocktail. After that, jump over to the Vegas Bomb and keep on with the Las Vegas drink theme.
