The Four Horsemen drink (or 4 Horsemen Shot) is a simple shooter that combines four varieties of whiskey—bourbon whiskey, Tennessee whiskey, Scotch whiskey, and Irish whiskey—used in equal-parts and served in a shot glass.Why is this drink called the Four Horsemen?It is named for the most popular brands of each type of whiskey that comprise the drink's ingredients: Jim Beam, Jack Daniel's, Johnnie Walker, and Jameson (named for John Jameson), all of whom come together like the four horsemen of the apocalypse. A bit cheeky if you ask us, but it's fun to consider that these top-selling spirits all feature gentleman whose names begin with "J."What alcohol is in a Four Horsemen shot?As far as we can tell, the original recipe for the Four Horsemen shot includes only whiskeys, and only the aforementioned whiskey brands.Some recipes found online include Jose Cuervo, which is a tequila and therefore ruins that whiskey streak. Other recipes call for all kinds of additional ingredients including Grand Marnier, Jagermeister, Bacardi, Captain Morgan, or even (gasp) sour mix, which sort of defeats the purpose of the name. If you see anyone calling for everclear or a method that involves flames, you may want to steer clear. When in doubt, stick to the classic four ingredients and nothing else.How to make a Four Horsemen shot?Some variations of the Four Horsemen recipe suggest shaking all the whiskeys with ice in a cocktail shaker to chill the shot, which you can do. But if you don't want to dilute the spirits, then there's no need to shake, stir or strain anything. Either drink the shot at room temperature, or chill the bottles before you make the Four Horsemen shot to enjoy it ice-cold.When making this drink, we suggest keeping it simple with the original Four Horsemen recipe. Just pour equal parts of each whiskey into a shot glass or lowball glass, and you're done. Easy peasy.Is the Four Horsemen shot strong?The Four Horsemen shot is often misperceived as an extra-strong drink made from hard liquors with high alcoholic content, but it is in fact no stronger than any other straight shot of whiskey, provided you're consuming an equal portion of liquid. Because, at the end of the day, you're still shooting two ounces of whiskey (per the usual half-ounce pour of each), regardless of how many whiskeys go into the glass. Of course, you should use caution whenever you're downing shots, but you already knew that.Does the Four Horsemen shot taste good?While the novelty of the name and the multi-part drink can certainly be fun, we're not sure we see the point in mixing a bunch of whiskeys together to create this shooter. Perhaps for the same questionable reason someone came up with the Three Wise Men shot—but hey, to each their own. If you like it, drink it!Combining four different whiskey brands in a single shot won't make you any more drunk when you're consuming the same volume of alcohol. But it's a fun way to work through some bottles in your home bar.
