I saw a crude method of a straw shot a while back. The bartender took a drink
straw,melted one end together, heated it with a lighter and blew into it to
make a "balloon" in the middle. He then proceeded to sip some Puckers in his
mouth and spit it into the pocket in the straw. Then seal the open end.
What is supposed to happen after that is the shot part. A person is supposed
to suck the shot out thru the side of the straw by sucking the straw's side
and breaking it.
The bartender didn't have any takers on that one. lol I suppose the air
bubble and the shot are supposed to be injected into the straw with a syringe.
Just a guess, I hope the way I saw isn't the usual way a straw shot is made.
