Peach Schnapps
Peach schnapps brings a fruity sweetness that makes Gator Piss approachable, despite the strong alcohol content. It's the touch of Southern comfort in a swirl of spirituous rigor. Go less, and you'll miss the peachy keen; go more, and you'll think you're biting into a boozy fruit salad.

Pineapple Juice
Adding a tropical twist, pineapple juice balances the sweetness with some tartness. It's the middleman between spirit and taste buds; neglect it, and the drink tilts into a heavyweight punch. It's also a sneaky hydrator amidst the potency.
Emma Rose
Southern Comfort
Smooth and with a whiskey foundation, Southern Comfort infuses warmth and a hint of spice to the mix. It's the blanket in the cocktail, wrapping all ingredients in a cozy embrace. Miss it out? The chill of absence will be felt, leaving a gap where mellow meets strong.

151 Proof Rum
The big bouncer of the drink, 151 proof rum brings the fire. It's what turns the cocktail from a mild mannered drink to 'Gator Piss.' Omit it, and you've got a kitten instead of a gator. For a milder kick, dial it down and substitute with a lower proof rum—you'll keep the party polite.
