What is a Vegas bomb?
A Vegas Bomb is a cocktail that combines an energy drink with a Royal Flush shot. Basically, a Royal Flush is a shot of Crown Royal whiskey, schnapps peach, and cranberry juice that is poured into a glass of an energy drink, usually a Red Bull. The drinks got their name from the wild parties people have at Vegas that seem like all-night raves. The word bomb is derived from the way the shot glass is plunged into the bigger glass and splashed , just as in the case of other famous bomb shot drinks such as the Irish Car Bomb or Jäger Bomb. This cocktail is popular in most places, especially bars as it is great to drink during parties because it tastes good and feels good.
What Makes the Vegas Bomb Unique?
The Memphis Bomb is unlike any other Memphis bomb, thanks to its peach schnapps, whiskey, cranberry juice and energy drinks. With nuance flavors, this mix gives rise to a flavorful, energizing shot. Any gathering becomes more enjoyable and vibrant with the added of zest of a ‘bomb’ drink by literally dropping the shot glass in the larger glass. It’s sweet, energetic with a splash which makes it ideal drink for most occasions, especially when celebration is the essence of the moment like in a bachelor or bachelorette party.
Ingredients:
- 1 oz (30 ml) Crown Royal Canadian Whisky
- 1 oz (30 ml) Peach Schnapps
- 1 oz (30 ml) Red Bull (or other energy drink)
Instructions:
Create the shooter glass: Grab a shot glass, pour in the Crown Royal Whisky and Peach Schnapps.
Pour in the Red Bull: Grab another glass and pour around 1 oz. of Red Bull in it. However, you can modify this depending on how strong you want your drink.
Pour the Red Bull into the shot glass: If you’re serving it as a bomb, you will pour it into the glass containing the whisky and schnapps.
Drink the Vegas Bomb quickly: The drink is usually treated as a bomb shot and therefore is rarely sipped slowly.
Juices (like orange or pomegranate juice) can increase the vitamin content.
How To Drop Shot In The Drink?
To drop the shot into the larger glass, first get the shot close to the top of the larger glass. Don’t let it hang too high otherwise the shot glass may be slammed to the counter and shatter. Instead, let it touch the surface of the energy drink so that it gives the bomb look without splashing any liquid out.

Different Ways you Can Personalize your Vegas Bomb
1. Whiskey Switcheroo: I tend to switch Crown Royal with Rye or Bourbon whiskeys to give this drink a different flavor.
2. Schnapps Change: I also tend to switch fruity schnapps for peach schnapps, using apple or cherry flavored schnapps in order to get something different.
3. Fresh Juice: Putting peach juice instead of cranberry juice is also good, especially if you don’t want a very tangy flavor.
4. Vary Energy Drink: You sure can take it but if you are convinced that red bull is the holy grail of energy drinks then you best have a rethink. I suggest you try Monster or Rockstar energy drinks first because they have a good flavor And are smooth.
5. Sweet Tweak: If you want to go for a less sweet option then instead of decreasing the amount of schnapps use a sugar free energy drink.
6. Stronger: If you love whiskey then a good idea would be to add more whiskey to the drink for that extra perfect blast in flavor.
