Gator Piss
I’ve made this drink countless times, and trust me—it’s always a conversation starter. Let’s get mixing!
Ingredients
You’ll need:
- 1 oz (30ml) Midori Melon Liqueur – This gives the drink its signature green color and sweet melon flavor.
- 1 oz (30ml) Peach Schnapps – Adds a juicy, fruity kick.
- A splash of Orange Juice – Brings in a little tang to balance the sweetness.
- A splash of Energy Drink – For a fizzy, slightly tart finish.
You’ll also need a shot glass (for the classic version) or a rocks glass if you prefer to sip.
How to Make Gator Piss
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the Midori and Peach Schnapps. Shake well to chill everything and blend the flavors.
- Strain into a shot glass, leaving a little room at the top.
- Add a splash of orange juice and top it off with a splash of energy drink.
That’s it! A quick shake, a pour, and you’ve got yourself a bold, sweet, and slightly tangy shooter.
Tips & Variations
- Chill your glass beforehand for an extra refreshing experience.
- Fresh-squeezed orange juice makes a big difference in flavor.
- Want a tropical spin? Swap the peach schnapps for coconut rum.
- Prefer a less sweet version? Use a sugar-free energy drink or add a splash of club soda.
- No Midori? Try a different melon liqueur, or for a non-alcoholic version, use melon syrup.

Make-Ahead & Storage
- You can pre-mix the Midori and Peach Schnapps in a small bottle and store it in the fridge for quick serving.
