Don’t pretend you clicked on this article for any reason other than this particular shot. Well, go ahead. Treat yo’self.
4. Gingerbread Shot
Why should Starbucks lattes get all the gingerbread action? We loved him in Shrek, but the Gingerbread Man is even better when he’s getting us wasted.
5. Cheesecake Shot
Something tells me this shot is even less caloric than its dessert inspiration. There you go–the perfect excuse to drink up.

If carrots are vegetables, and vodka comes from barley…this shot is basically a salad. This one is for my organic peeps out there.
