Make it your own
| Ingredient | Swap | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Simple syrup | Agave or honey syrup | Start with half as much and adjust to taste |

Storage & leftovers

A few helpful answers
How should I serve ghost shot?
Serve it immediately in a chilled glass with fresh ice where specified. That preserves the intended temperature, texture, and dilution.

Prepare the non-carbonated mixture ahead and refrigerate it. Add ice, soda, and garnishes immediately before serving.
Can I double this recipe?
Yes. Double each ingredient evenly; use a larger pan, bowl, or pitcher as needed.
