What is the most common alcoholic Shooter?

I see so many people these days, in Movies and on TV having Shooters.
Never had one in my life and they were never around in my drinking days in Tassie.
The purpose of drinking shooters is to get drunk, quicker?

I think so, although they're often sweeter and more palatable than the long drinks so some prefer them. I think bars realise there's more profit in them because if you serve someone a pint of beer, it might be 30 minutes before they come back for another drink. If you serve someone a shooter, they're buying another drink straight away.
