Equipment

  • Shot Glasses
  • Cocktail Shaker
  • Shallow Plates

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ ounces whipped cream vodka
  • 1 ½ ounces Rumchata
  • 2 tablespoon key lime juice

Optional to Rim Glass

  • 1 ounce key lime juice
  • ½ cup graham cracker crumbs can be gluten free if needed

Instructions

  • If rimming your glass, add some key lime juice to a shallow plate and dip your shot glasses upside down and allow any excess to drip off. 
  • Then dip into another shallow plate with graham cracker crumbs.
  • Make your shot by adding ice into a cocktail shaker about halfway then add ingredients. 
  • Shake until chilled and strain into 2 shot glasses.
  • Optionally, garnish your shot with whipped cream, crushed graham cracker crumbs, and lime.

Notes

  • To make your own key lime juice mix: add a 1:1 ratio of lime to lemon juice into a jar and shake. Use 1-2 tablespoons per 3 tablespoons needed in any recipe.
  • Double the recipe and strain it into a martini glass for a Key Lime Pie Cocktail.
  • Instead of key lime juice, try sour mix, lime cordial, or just lime juice.
  • Some people leave out Rumchata and just use vodka (plain or whipped cream flavor, I feel like vanilla vodka would be nice as well!) and lime.
