Salted Nut Roll Shot

Why we love this salted nut roll shot

Have you ever had this classic candy? I honestly hadn’t tried it until after I tried this shooter. So, naturally I got some to try the next time I was at the grocery store.And, unsurprisingly, the shot tastes exactly like Depression era candy – salted nuts around a with a creamy center.

You don’t actually have to buy salted nut rolls to enjoy this shot, but they’re worth trying if you haven’t had them. Either way, this shot is a winner, and it’s another great way to serve peanut butter whiskey.

P.S. Don’t forget to try my peanut butter and jelly shots.

Ingredients & substitutions

• Peanut butter whiskey – We used Skrewball peanut butter whiskey for this recipe.
• Frangelico
• Half & half
• Caramel sauce – I like to use store bought caramel sauce to rim my glass, but you can also use agave, simple syrup or even corn syrup. You just need something that the peanuts will stick to.
• Chopped peanuts
