A body shot works like this (at least for tequila drinkers):

Body is prepared by moistening a spot on the neck and coating it with salt and holding a lime wedge in his/her mouth.  
Shot Drinker licks the salt from Body’s neck, downs the shot of tequila and kisses Body, removing the lime wedge from his/her mouth. Tequila shot completed.

There are different variations, based on the shot of choice.

Ah…drinking as a contact sport…nothing better 😃

I like a nice Yukon Jack snakebite. Yukon Jack and Roses lime juice, chilled. Yum.  
I also love Undercurrents, but I forgot how to make them.
