Me-Some is a bright, fruit-forward vodka shot that leans into the playful, neon-tinged style of modern party shooters. It sits in the sweet liqueur-and-juice family, built for quick sipping rather than slow contemplation, with its character coming more from bold flavour layering than from a long, well-documented backstory.
You’ll find vodka provides a clean, neutral base that lets the liqueurs do the talking. Peach schnapps brings a soft, candied stone-fruit sweetness, while melon liqueur adds a rounded, syrupy fruit note that deepens the mid-palate. Blue curaçao contributes a distinct orange sweetness that brightens the mix, and the pineapple juice tops everything with juicy tropical richness. A dash of lemon juice cuts through the sugar, sharpening the finish and keeping the shot from feeling cloying.
Serve it chilled in a shot glass when you want something colourful, easy-going, and crowd-pleasing. It’s a natural fit for house parties, pre-drinks, and celebratory rounds—especially if you’re after a sweet, fruity profile with a little citrus lift rather than anything boozy or bitter.

Ingredients
Cocktail Colin says:
Vodka lays a clean base under peach schnapps, melon liqueur, and blue curaçao, while pineapple juice floods the shot with tropical sweetness and a dash of lemon juice adds a quick, bright snap. The citrus edge keeps the liqueurs from turning syrupy and the vodka reins in the candy-fruit rush, making it ideal for party-shot fans and anyone who likes sweet, colorful, easygoing shooters.

FAQ's
What is the best way to serve the Me-Some cocktail?
The Me-Some cocktail is best served cold in a shot glass. Given its vibrant layers and colors, it is recommended to carefully pour each ingredient to maintain a visually appealing layering effect. The cocktail should be shaken well before the final layer is added to ensure a chilled and mixed base.
How can I achieve the perfect layering for the Me-Some cocktail?
For perfect layering in the Me-Some cocktail, start by pouring the heaviest ingredients first based on sugar content and density. Use a spoon or a pouring spout to gently layer each ingredient. The correct order would be to start with the melon liqueur, followed by Peach Schnapps, vodka, and Blue Curaçao mixed together, then topped with pineapple juice and a dash of lemon juice.
Can I substitute anything for Blue Curaçao if I don't have it?
If you don't have Blue Curaçao, you can substitute it with Triple Sec or another orange-flavored liqueur. To maintain the color, you could add a drop of blue food coloring to the substitute liqueur. However, note that this might slightly alter the taste profile of the Me-Some cocktail.
How does the alcohol content in the Me-Some compare to other cocktails?
The Me-Some has an alcohol content of approximately 20.87%, which places it in the mid-range for cocktails. It is higher in alcohol content than light cocktails like a Mimosa but lower than a strong Martini. This makes the Me-Some a moderately strong choice, suitable for occasions where you want a balanced drink that's neither too light nor overly potent.
Are there any recommended customizations for the Me-Some to enhance its flavor?
To customize and possibly enhance the flavor of the Me-Some, consider adding fresh fruit garnishes that complement its tropical profile, such as a slice of pineapple or a cherry. Another idea is to rim the shot glass with sugar or salt to add an extra texture and taste dimension. For a sweeter cocktail, you could also increase the amount of pineapple juice or add a splash of simple syrup.
