A shot is technically defined as 1.5 oz. Sorry, I should have mentioned that a shot in the Sauce guide is defined as being 1 oz (US). Saying that, I guess if you went by the 1.5 oz measure, you'd just end up with a bigger, rather than stronger drink (though slightly lacking in Angostura bitters). And it wouldn't fit in the glass mentioned. Etc... As it says in the guide, "whatever the measure you use as a shot, be sure to use the same measure for all ingredients so that the the proportions of one ingredient to another remain as the recipe intended'.
