What is Pistachio Shot?
A pistachio shot is an alcoholic beverage that has a subtle flavor of pistachios. The drink is made by pouring vodka, amaretto, and milk into a glass and garnishing it with a slice of lemon. You can also serve this up in a martini glass as well.
For those who don’t like the taste of alcohol, you can use half-and-half instead of whole milk to cut down on the strength. Some other fun additions to this recipe are crushed pistachios or almonds in order to add some texture to your drink.
