Pro Tips

1. Chill Your Glass Before starting, place your shot glass in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the drink. This ensures your Scooby Snack Shot stays cold when served.

2. Cream Alternatives If you prefer a lighter version, consider using half-and-half or coconut milk instead of heavy cream. This can also add a subtle coconut flavor that complements the rum.

3. Garnish for Flair Add a small piece of pineapple or a cherry on the rim of the shot glass for a nice touch. It makes the shot more visually appealing and adds a hint of extra flavor.

4. Balanced Shaking Don’t overdo the shaking. About 15 seconds is ideal to properly mix and chill the cream with the other ingredients without over-diluting your drink.

5. Batch Preparation If you’re making shots for a crowd, multiply the recipe accordingly and mix in a larger shaker or pitcher, then strain into individual shot glasses. This saves time and ensures consistency in each shot.
