Shots have been integral to drinking traditions from the start. Shots have changed how we enjoy alcohol over the years. We use them to celebrate a friend’s birthday, serve as appetizers before dinner, or toast at a wedding.

In contemporary drinking culture, a “shot” denotes a small quantity of liquor. Typically, a shot consists of an ounce of pure spirit, such as tequila, vodka, whisky. This swift, one-gulp ounce of alcohol is often consumed alongside a more substantial beverage.

What Is The History Of Shots?

The word ‘shot’ has a complex history with various meanings, leading to confusion among users and historians. A popular misconception suggests it originated in the old west, linked to trading bullets for alcohol in saloons.

The term “shot” for a measure of liquor predates the Old West, first recorded by Rev. Oliver Heywood in the 17th century. Other theories suggest the term may derive from glassmaker Friedrich Otto Schott and his shot glasses.

The term “shot” started as a one-time charge. Now, it often means a small glass of liquor. This change became popular from 1928 onward. Different countries have their own traditions, types, and sizes of shots today.
