These people did the same thing, but the difference between us and them is that they actually went on to name a band. Check out these 21 band names inspired by a little quality time flipping channels from the couch. Alex Meagher, Flickr // CC BY NC-2.0.
Answer by MerlinsMinion. Confidence votes 825. This depends on the brand of vodka being served and the place you are ordering the shot. Shots can range anywhere from $2.00 for cheap vodka at a cheap bar to $20.00+ a shot for more upscale vodka at a nice place.
The answer to this is, of course, going to vary from drink to drink and there are a few things to consider. The average cocktail uses: 1 1/2 ounces (the average shot) of a base liquor (i.e. vodka, gin, rum, etc.). Liqueurs are typically poured at 1/2 to 3/4 ounce. Accent juices (i.e. lemon and lime) typically use 1/4 to 1/2 ounce. Filling a highball or tall drink with juice or soda often requires 4 to 6 ounces. With this information and the recipes you intend to serve, you can estimate how many bottles of each liquor you will need to create a certain number of drinks.
