Tarheel shot
Contains Alcohol:  Yes
Style: Shot
Glass Type: Highball Glass
Ingredients: 3

Recipe:
1 oz Vodka (Vanilla)
1 oz Chocolate Liqueur
1/2 oz Blue Curacao

Instructions

This shot is obviously for Carolina fans and was created on a fun evening at Cafe Caribe in Greenville, NC after Duke lost to Carolina (03/04/06). Oh what a fun night. This shot comes out more of a Carolina Blue than the more common carolina Blue kamikazi. It happens to be very tasty too.Shake ingredients over ice, strain into a shooter glass. Add Blue Curacao slowly until the appropriate color is reached. You may need to add a little, shake, pour some to see the color, and then add more. A small amount of Cream can be added if the shot is too Blue.
