Halloween Sprinkles

- Roll the frosting into sprinkles.
- Pour mixed liquor into the shot glass and enjoy it.
Tips & Tricks
- Chill Your Ingredients: For a smoother, more refreshing shot, keep your vodka, pumpkin spice liqueur, and RumChata in the fridge before mixing. Cold ingredients will blend better and give the shot that creamy texture.
- Get Creative with the Rim: While orange frosting and Halloween sprinkles are fun, you can switch things up for different occasions! Try caramel sauce, crushed graham crackers, or cinnamon sugar for a more sophisticated twist.
- Adjust the Sweetness: If you prefer a slightly less sweet shot, use less frosting on the rim or swap the vanilla vodka for plain vodka to tone down the sweetness.
- Batch for a Party: These shots are easy to make in batches! Multiply the ingredients and mix them in a larger pitcher for quick serving at a big event.
- Customize the Garnish: Add a small dollop of whipped cream on top for extra indulgence or garnish with a dash of cinnamon for a more “pumpkin pie” presentation.
