White Tea Shot Recipe: How to Make It (And Why Kamoti Bottled It)
Share
You've had the green tea shot. You know the deal. But the white tea shot? That's the one people keep ordering at the bar but never bother to make at home. Until now.
Let's fix that.
The Classic White Tea Shot Recipe
The traditional white tea shot is a vodka-based shooter. Light, smooth, and dangerously easy to drink. Here's what goes in it:
- 1 oz vodka
- 0.5 oz peach schnapps
- 0.5 oz sour mix
- A splash of lemon-lime soda
Shake the vodka, peach schnapps, and sour mix over ice. Strain into a shot glass. Top with a splash of lemon-lime soda. Done.
The result is a bright, fruity shot with a citrus edge and just enough sweetness to go down smooth. It doesn't taste like a traditional spirit shot. It tastes like a party in a glass.
Why the White Tea Shot Works
The vodka base keeps it clean and neutral. It lets the peach and citrus flavors shine instead of fighting them. That's the whole point of a white tea shot—smooth over sharp, fruity over boozy.
Unlike whiskey-based shots, vodka doesn't add heat or oakiness. The profile stays light and refreshing. That's why it goes down so easy. That's also why you end up ordering three rounds when you only planned for one.
The Problem with Making It from Scratch
The bar version is inconsistent. Every bartender has a different pour. Some bars skimp on the peach schnapps. Others drown it in sour mix—artificial, sugar-heavy stuff that leaves a chemical aftertaste.
Making it at home means buying four separate bottles, measuring, shaking, and hoping the ratios land right. That's why we built Kamoti.

Kamoti's white tea shot bottle is the classic, done right. Vodka-based. Real peach, coconut, and lime flavors. No artificial ingredients. No high fructose corn syrup. No gluten.
