You'd be suprised how many people ask for a full size tropical drink after they've had a teaser. OK, well not that many... but if I whip up a dozen micro-zombies, I usually get at least one person asking about it. And when I tell them what it is, they're shocked because it's not the cough syrup they're used to. As far as the shooter vs. shot arguement goes: I had always assumed shooters were 98% candy/2% alcohol for underage college girls with unfortunate fashion sense... and shots were just poured spirits for those who need to kill the pain fast. -Z
