For the Boozy Salted Caramel Mixture
- 1 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup vodka
For the Glass Rims and Garnish
- 1/4 cup sea salt
- 1 cup crushed pretzels
- 1/2 cup whipped cream
- Mix Caramel and Vodka: In a mixing bowl, combine the caramel sauce and vodka until the mixture is smooth and fully blended, creating your sweet boozy base.
- Prepare the Glass Rims: In a small plate, mix the crushed pretzels and sea salt. Dip the rims of your shot glasses into this mixture to coat them evenly, creating a crunchy, flavorful border.
- Fill the Shot Glasses: Pour the caramel vodka mixture carefully into each of the prepared shot glasses until nearly full.
- Add Whipped Cream Topping: Top each shot with a generous dollop of whipped cream to add a creamy texture and balance the sweet and salty flavors.
- Garnish: Sprinkle additional crushed pretzels and a light sprinkle of sea salt over the whipped cream for an extra crunch and flavor accent.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the shots immediately to maintain freshness and enjoy responsibly with friends or at your next celebration.
Notes
- For best results, chill the shot glasses before rimming them to help the caramel vodka mixture stay cold longer.
- You can substitute caramel sauce with homemade caramel for a more personalized flavor.
- Use quality vodka for a smoother taste that complements the caramel.
- Adjust the amount of sea salt on the rim according to your preferred saltiness.
- These shots are best enjoyed fresh and should be consumed responsibly.
