Alabama Slammer

Born in the 1970s and beloved by college bars and tailgates alike, the Alabama Slammer is a sweet and fruity crowd-pleaser. Blending Southern Comfort, amaretto, sloe gin, and orange juice, it's a ruby-red drink that tastes like a boozy fruit punch — smooth going down and packing a nostalgic punch. Whether served as a highball, a shooter, or straight from the pitcher, it's pure retro charm in a glass.
