Description

The Alien Brain Hemorrhage Shot is a dramatic, creepy, and fun party drink made with peach schnapps, Irish cream, blue curaçao, and grenadine. When layered correctly, the cream curdles to create brain-like clumps while the grenadine bleeds through, creating a terrifying yet fascinating visual effect. Perfect for Halloween, sci-fi parties, and shock-factor drink menus.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 oz peach schnapps
  • ½ oz Irish cream liqueur
  • 3 drops blue curaçao
  • 23 drops grenadine

Instructions

  1. Pour the peach schnapps into a clear shot glass.
  2. Slowly drip the Irish cream into the center—let it naturally clump and form “brain” strands.
  3. Add 2–3 drops of blue curaçao to create streaking color.
  4. Finish by dropping grenadine; allow it to sink and form the “hemorrhage” effect.
  5. Serve immediately for the best visual impact.

Notes

  • Serve fresh; the layers blend if left too long.
  • Use cheap Irish cream for stronger curdling.
  • Blue curaçao is optional but adds a more “alien-like” look.
  • Make in small batches right before serving for parties.
