6. Nostalgic PB&J Shots

strawberry shot with peanut butter whiskey.

Transport yourself back to a childhood flavor with these peanut butter and jelly shots. This recipe incorporates a homemade strawberry coulis (don't worry, it's easy to make), along with a few other ingredients.

You won't believe how much an alcoholic shot can resemble a rich, nostalgic PB&J.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup strawberries hulled and halved
  • ยผย cupย granulated sugar
  • 1ย tablespoonย lemon juiceย (about ยฝ lemon)
  • 1ย ounceย vodka
  • 4ย ouncesย Skrewball peanut butter whiskey
  • splashย heavy whipping cream
  • additional strawberries for garnish

Instructions:

For the Strawberry Coulis:

  1. To a medium saucepan add strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until strawberries have visibly reduced in size and juice begins to form.
  2. Reduce heat to low, and cook for an additional 10 minutes. The strawberries will continue to release juice and thicken.
  3. Remove from heat. Puree in a blender until smooth. Optionally, strain seeds with a fine mesh strainer.

For The Shot:

  1. Combine 1.5 ounces of strawberry coulis along with vodka and ยฝ cup of ice in a Boston shaker. Shake for 30 seconds until well combined, then strain with a Hawthrone strainer into four shot glasses.
  2. Combine 4 ounces of Skrewball peanut butter whiskey along with a dash of heavy whipping cream and ยฝ cup of ice in a Boston shaker. Shake for 30 seconds until well combined. Strain with a Hawthorne strainer into a measuring cup or something that has a pour spout.
  3. Hold a bar spoon over the shot glass. The bottom of the spoon should be covering most of the opening of the shot glass and tilted slightly downwards. Slowly pour the peanut butter whiskey mixture directly on top of the bar spoon, and allow it to slowly drip into the shot glass. Move the bar spoon around slightly so the peanut butter layer evenly covers the top.
  4. For the garnish, thinly slice a strawberry with a paring knife and poke a cocktail pick through the upper, middle part of the strawberry. Rest the cocktail pick gently on top of the shot. Serve immediately.
