Many times, a shot is named for something that tastes only tangentially like its name. Not so with the Green Gummy Bear. This shot tastes like a candy you know and love, and also gets you wasted. Despite being green, this popular shot has a light orange taste. So put on your safety belt and get ready to ride the Green Gummy Bear shot!

Total Time:
Add orange vodka and Midori to a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a shot glass. Top the shot with a splash of 7-up or Sprite. Serve, chug, and enjoy repeatedly.
The Green Gummy Bear is the most well know of the Gummy Bear shots named for a specific color. The green comes from the melon flavored Midori, but the flavor is punctuated by the mandarin orange vodka and lemon-lime soda.
