3.53 / 5
The Red Headed Slut is a bold and sassy cocktail that delivers a unique blend of sweet, tart, and herbal flavors. This vivacious concoction is made with peach schnapps, which provides a fruity and sweet base, cranberry juice that introduces a tangy kick, and Jägermeister that brings a complex layer of herbal and slightly bitter notes. Traditionally served in a shot glass, this drink is often enjoyed as a quick, spirited shot that's popular in the party scene and among those looking for a drink with a bit of an edge. The vibrant red hue and the playful name make it a memorable choice for a lively night out.
