A '''bomb shot''', or '''depth charge''', is a [[mixed drink]] that is made by mixing two drinks. A drink in a small glass (typically a [[shot glass]]) is dropped into a larger glass holding a different drink. The resulting cocktail is typically consumed as quickly as possible ("chugged"). Recently, the term has become more loosely defined as simply a shot that is made by mixing two drinks.

Preparation

A bomb shot typically consists of a shot glass of hard liquor that is dropped into a glass partially filled with beer but sometimes with some other beverage. Many variations exist. When the shot is dropped into a pint it is commonly known as a "depth charge", because it resembles the anti-submarine weapon being dropped on a target.[citation needed]
