8 Christmas-Themed Shot Drinks

Santa Hat Shots

At the bottom of a shot glass, layer strawberry liqueur or grenadine, then peppermint schnapps. The red and white layers are reminiscent of Santa's hat.

Candy Cane Shooter

Combine equal parts peppermint schnapps and white chocolate liqueur in a mixing glass. Serve chilled in a shot glass with a mini candy cane garnish.

Gingerbread Cookie Shots

Combine gingerbread-flavored vodka, Baileys Irish Cream, and cinnamon schnapps in a mixing glass. Shake vigorously before straining into a shot glass.

Festive Grinch Shot

Use melon liqueur (Midori) to make a green layer, and cranberry juice to make a red layer. The bright colors resemble the appearance of the Grinch.

Mistletoe Kiss

Combine vanilla vodka, amaretto, and cranberry juice in a mixing glass. Serve in a shot glass with a sprig of fresh mistletoe on top.

Christmas Cookie Dough Shot

Combine the butterscotch schnapps, Irish cream, and cinnamon schnapps in a mixing glass. For a delicious cookie dough flavor, shake well and strain into a shot glass.

Pumpkin Pie Shooter

Layer pumpkin liqueur, Irish cream, and cinnamon on top. It's like a shot glass-sized pumpkin pie.

Snowball Shot
