"First I prefer to use Canadian whiskey. It has a smokier taste that adds a new layer of interest to the shot. Then, equal parts sour apple schnapps and cranberry juice. I shake this over ice, pour into a shot glass, then top with a quick spurt of soda water to add a slight fizz."

Whenever the interviewer asks you how to make a shot, it's an opportunity for you to show off your knowledge and your technique. Let your personality shine through. It's not just about knowing the drinks. If you simply explain the ingredients and how to mix it all together, you're selling yourself short. It's all about the delivery. Romanticize it!
