Midnight Chocolate Coffee New Year's Eve Shots
These easy midnight coffee chocolate flavored New Year’s Eve shots are elegant, smooth, delicious, and as always, made with super simple ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Ghirardelli Chocolate Sauce
- 2 oz Strong Brewed Coffee
- 3 oz White Rum - such as Bacardi, Don Q, or Flor de Caña
- 1 scoop Softened Deluxe Vanilla Ice Cream - such as Haagen-Dazs
- pinch Cinnamon
- ¼ tsp Vanilla
- Gold Edible Glitter - I used a gold luster dust spray
Instructions
- Lightly dip shot glasses in a bit of the chocolate sauce and spray with gold luster dust. Set aside. In a cocktail shaker, splash in the coffee and white rum.
- Next, drizzle in about 2 tablespoons of the Ghirardelli chocolate sauce. Next, splash in the vanilla along with a pinch of cinnamon.
- Lastly, drop in a small scoop of softened good vanilla ice cream such as Haagen-Dazs. Fill the cocktail shaker with ice until it’s about 3/4 of the way full and cover.
- Shake the coffee, white rum, chocolate sauce, vanilla, cinnamon, and vanilla ice cream until cold and combined. Remove the lid and check to see that the ice cream has completely combined into the rest of the cocktail. If not, continue shaking until it disappears.
- Using a strainer, pour the New Year’s Eve shots evenly and divide into 5 or 6 of the prepared shot glasses. They should make about 5 or 6 one ounce shots.
- Serve immediately after pouring and consume while ice cold.
