Bandera Tequila Shots Recipe 1. For green shot: 1 part blanco tequila. If you want to make the lime shot more green like the flag, add a drop of food color. 2. For white shot: 1 part lime juice/1 part blanco tequila. 3. For red shot: 2 parts blanco tequila, and 1 part tomato juice. You can set up the different-colored shots on a bar or table, or make them “to order.” July 4th Tequila Shots: To turn this into Red, White & Blue tequila shots for July 4th, use a drop of blue food color instead of green food color in Step 1.
