The Vegas Bomb shot can be made in three different ways, each one getting a little easier (or lazier) to make. The one described in this article is the most important and difficult to make. The cranberry juice is simply removed in the next version. The simplest version is to leave out the Malibu and replace it with Crown Royal and Schnapps.
