Gingerbread Shot: A Festive Holiday Treat
The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the opportunity to create festive and delicious cocktails to share with friends and family. One such creation is the Gingerbread Shot, a delightful blend of Fireball whiskey, butterscotch schnapps, heavy cream, and gingerbread syrup.
Details
This shot recipe is a perfect representation of the classic gingerbread cookie, with a sweet and spicy flavor profile that is sure to impress. The combination of butterscotch schnapps and Fireball whiskey provides a rich and smooth base, while the heavy cream adds a creamy texture. The gingerbread syrup brings everything together, infusing the shot with the warm and comforting spices of the holiday season.
Ingredients
* ¾ ounce Fireball whiskey
* ¾ ounce butterscotch schnapps
* ½ ounce heavy cream
* ½ ounce gingerbread syrup
* Optional garnish: buttercream icing, crumbled gingerbread cookies, or festive sprinkles
Equipment
* Cocktail shaker
* Shot glass
Instructions
1. Gather your ingredients and fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
2. Combine the Fireball whiskey, butterscotch schnapps, heavy cream, and gingerbread syrup in the shaker.
3. Shake the mixture for 15 seconds until it is icy cold.

Notes
* For a festive touch, garnish the shot glass with buttercream icing, crumbled gingerbread cookies, or festive sprinkles.
* If you make a batch of gingerbread syrup, be sure to also try our gingerbread latte. It would also be delicious in tea or a gingerbread steamer for kids (milk and a little gingerbread syrup, steamed).
* If you want to make these shots ahead, you can save a pre-made mixture in a bottle in your fridge, but don’t add ice until you are ready to shake and serve them.
