Ingredients

Here's all you need to make this deliciously nutty shot.

See the recipe card below for the exact quantities of each ingredient.

• Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey: Adds that signature nutty peanut butter whiskey flavor.
• Vanilla Vodka: Brings a smooth, creamy sweetness.
• RumChata: Provides a velvety texture and richness.

To shake this shot up all you'll need is a jigger, cocktail shaker and measuring spoon. If you are going to rim your shot glasses you will want a shallow plate.

Variations

• Swap the Vanilla Vodka: Try peanut butter vodka or hazelnut liqueur for a stronger nutty flavor.
• Add Butterscotch Schnapps: A fun twist that adds caramel flavor.
• Use Irish Cream Liqueur: For a slightly richer, creamier texture similar to RumChata.
• Top with Crushed Peanuts: Sprinkle along the rim of the glass for extra crunch and a unique flavor.

How to Make a Salted Nut Roll Shot

Just look at how simple it is to make this creamy, nutty shot.

If rimming, add caramel sauce to one plate and salt to another.

Dip the rim of your shot glass to the caramel and then to the salt, or sprinkle along the edges while holding the glass horizontally. 

In a cocktail shaker filled halfway with ice pour whiskey, vodka and RumChata.

Shake until chilled and strain into a shot glass.

Hint: Chill your shot glasses before serving for a smooth, creamy experience.

Recipe Tips

• Shaken/Stirred: Shake well to create a frothy, creamy texture and fully combine the ingredients.
• Glass: Any shot glass is great, but you can also pour a double batch over ice in a lowball.
• Garnish: Use thick caramel sauce or peanut butter so the salt sticks evenly to the rim of the shot glass.
• Dessert-Like Feel: Top with whipped cream and crushed peanuts.
• Taste Before You Pour: Everyone's sweet tooth is different, give it a quick taste before serving and adjust with a splash of cream if needed.
