Blending coconut rum, banana liqueur, pineapple juice, and a touch of heavy cream, this creamy shot has the perfect mix of fruity sweetness and smooth richness. Finished with a dollop of whipped cream and a Scooby Snack cookie, it's a whimsical drink that's great for parties, nostalgic gatherings, or any time you want a little extra fun.

Whether you're reminiscing about driving a mystery machine van on a Saturday morning or just want a crowd-pleasing round of tropical shots, my Scooby Doo shot is a quick, easy option that brings a smile with every sip (and bite).

• Heavy Whipping Cream: Provides a luxurious, creamy finish.
• Garnishes: Whipped cream and a Scooby Snacks cookie for a fun, themed finish.

For this simple shot, you'll want to have on hand a cocktail shaker and shot glass.

Substitutions and Variations

Whether you're out of something or just feeling adventurous, try these ideas.

• Different Rum Options: Try Malibu coconut rum or a flavored white rum for a slight twist.
• Midori Mix: For a fun, bright green color that ties into the classic Scooby theme. Swap it all together for a different flavor profile all together.
• No Heavy Whipping Cream: Use coconut cream or omit entirely for a lighter version.
• Alternative Garnish: Top with a maraschino cherry instead of a cookie for a classic cocktail finish.
• Frozen Version: Blend the ingredients with ice for a frozen Scooby Doo slushie-style shot.

How to Make a Scooby Doo Shot

This Scooby Doo shot comes together quickly - just shake with ice, pour into shot glasses, and top with a fun garnish for instant party vibes.

Fill a cocktail shaker about halfway with ice.

Pour coconut rum, banana liqueur, pineapple juice and heavy cream into the shaker and mix well.

Strain into 2 2.5-ounce (or 3 2-ounce) shot glasses and enjoy.

Optionally, add some whipped cream and top with a Scooby Snacks cookie.

Hint: Chilling the drink thoroughly keeps it smooth and refreshing, shake vigorously.

How to Serve a Scooby Doo Shot Drink

Here's what you need to know before you pour.

• Shaken/Stirred: Shaking this shot helps to chill the ingredients quickly and blend the coconut, banana, and pineapple flavors smoothly.
• Glass: Shot glass is the classic way to serve this one, but if you want to sip it instead? Double the recipe and serve over ice cubes in a rocks glass.
• Garnishes: Top with whipped cream and a Scooby Snacks cookie for a fun, playful finish.

What to Serve with our Scooby Doo Shot

• Mini Cheese Balls: The creamy, savory profile is a great contrast to the sweet shot, and the bite-sized format makes them perfect for a party.
• Playful Cookies: Chewy cookies that match the playful vibe of the shot, try our chocolate cake mix cookies, vanilla Christmas cake mix cookies, lemon blueberry cookies or our red, white and blue cookies.
• Crispy Fluffy Pancakes or Banana Sheet Pan Pancakes: Especially if you're serving the shot as part of a brunch spread.
• Eggnog Cheesecake (Instant Pot): For a creamy, indulgent dessert that doesn't try to steal the show and offers a different flavor profile.
• Apple Pie a la Mode: The warm cinnamon-apple notes bring cozy contrast to the tropical creaminess of the drink.
• Banana Pudding Cups: Mirroring the banana flavor while staying light and creamy.

Top Tips

Here are some helpful tips when you're shaking up a round of Scooby snack shots.

• Shake Well: Combine all ingredients well to create a perfectly mixed, creamy shot.
• Top with Garnish Just Before Serving: To keep the whipped cream from melting too fast garnish right before serving.
• Chill Your Glasses: Pop your shot glasses in the freezer for a few minutes for extra frosty fun.
• Serve Immediately: These shots are best enjoyed right after mixing for the freshest flavor and texture.
