What is a sicilian kiss shot?

The Sicilian kiss shot is made of amaretto and Southern comfort. Since this shot is only two ingredients and there is no layering or anything else required it is a super super easy drink to make.

Amaretto has a strong almond flavor with little hints of vanilla, spices and tends to have a little bit of a bitter bite in the aftertaste.

Southern comfort otherwise known as SoCo is a whiskey type liqueur which has a fruit and spice flavor to it.

The Sicilian kiss shot like other simple two ingredients shots such as the Tootsie roll, is one of the easier shots to make. It’s perfect for a simple get together or a relaxing evening.

How to make this drink:

This shot requires no layering, glass rimming, or any other fancy techniques. You simply pour the two ingredients together and enjoy.
