If you’re making mocktails, a “shot” of juice or syrup is usually 30 ml. So a 200 ml bottle of bitters? That’s 6.6 shots of flavor. Perfect for a non-alcoholic gathering.
And if the bottle is 200 ml of pure vanilla extract? That’s 4.5 shots—but don’t drink it. Vanilla extract is 35% alcohol. You’d wake up with a very weird hangover.

How Many Shots Are in a Bottle of Liquor?
Let’s talk about the glass
Not all shot glasses are equal. Some are tall and skinny, made for sipping. Others are short and wide, meant to be slammed. The shape changes how much fits.
A classic American shot glass holds 44 ml. But a rocks glass filled to the brim? That’s 60 ml. So 200 ml in a rocks glass is just 3.3 shots. Fewer, but heavier.
Moral of the story: Always check the glass. And maybe the country.
