Scooby Snack Shot was named after Shaggy’s treat from the famous 70’s cartoon Scooby Doo. In the original Scooby-Doo the character of Scooby- Doo likes to eat “Scooby Snacks”, a snack food that resembles biscuit-like dog treats. They used to be golden brown in color.  It is a sweet, light green -coloured and creamy drink served in a shot glass.They are actually known as Graham crackers. 

Taste: It is for the  one who hates alcohol, but still wants to try it. It will not give you exact alcohol flavor, but it is very smooth like a Buttery Nipple due to its creamy texture and low alcohol content. 

Ingredients: 

• Coconut Rum ( Malibu)
• Banana Liqueur ( Creme de Banana)
• Melon Liqueur- (Midori)- 1 ounce ( 30 ml approx)
• Pineapple juice- 1 ounce (30 ml approx)
• Heavy cream- 0.5 ounce 
• Whipped cream- (garnish)
• Garnish ideas- Cherries, pineapple leaf, cocktail of cherry, whipped cream, Sprig of mint 

Things to Keep in Mind While Making Scooby Snack Shot

1. You can use either banana liqueur or melon liqueur 
2. Heavy cream is a must for this recipe, as it will make the shot ultra creamy and smooth drink. 
3. Make this into a blue scooby snack shot by swapping melon liqueur for blue curacao.
4. Add the whipped cream on top just before serving! This ensures the whipped cream doesn't melt into the shot.
5. Add creme de banana / banana liqueur to your scooby doo shot for an even creamier/rich tropical flavor.
6. Consume it immediately because whip cream easily melts. 
7. Keep the shot glasses in the freezer for at least 30 minutes in advance. 
8. It  is best served very cold.
9. You can use other creams as well, for eg cream or coconut milk 
10. Add a bit more flavor with banana 

Substitutions:

1. If you want your drink to be dairy free, you can use full-fat coconut cream instead of heavy cream . Make sure you shake it well. 
2. You can also opt for vegan heavy whipping cream.
3. If you want it to serve your kids , you can opt for a mocktail version. Add cream of coconut instead of rum. Replace melon Liqueur with a melon puree. 
4. You can replace coconut rum with White rum followed by adding a splash of coconut extract or coconut water.
5. If pineapple juice is not available, swap it with orange juice or mango juice.

FAQs

• How many calories are in a scooby snack shot?

98 calories per shot. 

• What if I don’t have a cocktail shaker?

Though it is recommended to use a cocktail shaker because the cream needs to mix well with the alcohol, but if you don’t have it you can use any cup and cover it with a lid and shake it together. 

•  What’s the best way to serve the Scooby Snack Shot at a party?

A5: To serve at a party, pre-measure and mix the liquors in a large batch. When it’s time to serve, shake portions with ice and whipped cream as needed, then top each shot with more whipped cream. This allows you to quickly prepare multiple shots while keeping them fresh and frothy.

• Can I use homemade whipped cream for this shot?

Absolutely! Homemade whipped cream can elevate the taste of the Scooby Snack Shot. Just ensure it’s not too stiff, as you’ll want it to blend smoothly with the other ingredients when shaken.

• Can You Make a Scooby-Doo Snack Shot with Milk?

For a lighter, less creamy variation, go ahead and use milk instead of heavy cream for this recipe. You’ll still have the same delicious tropical fruit flavors with less calories and fat. It’s a win-win!

• How Many Calories are in a Scooby Shot?

A 1.5oz Scooby snack Shot made with heavy cream is just over 100 calories. These can quickly add up during a night out, so be mindful of that if you’re logging your meals.
