How can a bartender pour a set of multi-colored shots from the same shaker?

Yell cheers and hit the jump for some hot rainbow pouring action.

  • This Rainbow Shooter is OK, but it's lacking some blue on the back end. There's a pretty detailed tutorial on how to do this with pictures for each step, and a video that walks you through the whole process over at
