What is Hairy Mary?
The Hairy Mary shot is a bold little troublemaker. Smoky Scotch whisky meets the deep cherry sweetness of maraschino liqueur, creating a rich, slightly mysterious shot that feels old-school and unapologetic. It’s simple, yes, but it doesn’t play small. If you like your shots with character and a bit of attitude, this one shows up ready.
I believe this shot shines when you want something different from the usual candy-sweet shooters. It’s more grown-up, more brooding, and honestly a great conversation starter. If you enjoy spirit-forward recipes, this pairs nicely with classics like the Manhattan.
Don't forget to see what other drinks you can make with the ingredients you already have in your bar.
Why You'll Love It?
- It’s bold and spirit-forward without being harsh.
- The smoky Scotch and cherry notes balance surprisingly well.
- Only two ingredients, but it still feels intentional.
- Perfect for whisky lovers who hate sugary shots.
