  • Author: Ethan

Description

A sweet, creamy shot that tastes like a tropical vacation in a glass! The Butternut Rum Lifesaver blends Baileys, butterscotch schnapps, coconut rum, and pineapple juice for a smooth, dessert-like drink with major island vibes. Perfect for parties, girl’s night, or when you just need a mini escape. Topped with whipped cream and totally unforgettable—this one’s a must-try!


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ oz Baileys Irish Cream

  • ½ oz Butterscotch Schnapps

  • ½ oz Coconut Rum (like Malibu)

  • ½ oz Pineapple Juice

  • Ice, for shaking

  • Whipped Cream, for topping

Optional garnish:

  • Mini meringue or caramel drizzle


Instructions

  • Chill your shot glass in the freezer for about 5 minutes.

  • In a cocktail shaker, combine Baileys, butterscotch schnapps, coconut rum, and pineapple juice.

  • Add a scoop of ice and shake well for 10–15 seconds, until cold and lightly frothy.

  • Strain into the chilled shot glass.

  • Top with whipped cream for a dreamy finish.

  • Optional: Add a mini meringue or drizzle of caramel for extra flair.

 

  • Serve immediately—sip it slow or shoot it back!

Notes

  • Shake hard! You want a creamy, well-mixed shot—don’t be shy with that shaker.

  • For a dairy-free version, use plant-based Irish cream and coconut-based whipped topping.

  • Make it a cocktail: Double or triple the recipe and serve over ice in a rocks glass.

  • Hosting a party? Prep the base in advance and shake before serving to keep it chilled and smooth.

 

  • Try it with mango juice for a delicious twist on the tropical flavor.
