The Silk Panties is a fun shot that combines vodka and peach schnapps. While today it's a relatively obscure drink that has been mostly relegated to college bars, it was named “Drink of the Year” by Bartender Magazine in 1986. Yes, it's from the '80s, the same decade that brought us a slew of other drinks with provocative names.The Silk Panties can be served as a shot or enjoyed more slowly as a cocktail. This recipe, when shaken with ice, makes enough for two shots. If you'd like to drink it as a cocktail, simply strain the contents into a cocktail glass and garnish with an optional peach slice.For a simple riff on this drink, add a dash of cranberry juice, and you get the Pink Silk Panties (also called the Woo Woo). This version is typically served up in a cocktail glass.
