Description

These Shamrock Shake Pudding Shots are a delightful, boozy twist on the classic Shamrock Shake, combining creamy vanilla pudding with Baileys Vanilla Mint Shake Liqueur for a festive, minty treat. Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day or any fun gathering, these pudding shots are smooth, refreshing, and garnished with whipped cream and maraschino cherries for an extra special touch.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3.4 oz Sonic Vanilla Shake Instant Pudding mix
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup Baileys Vanilla Mint Shake Liqueur
  • 8 oz Cool Whip (thawed)
  • A drop of green food coloring (optional)

Garnish

  • Whipped cream for garnish
  • Maraschino cherries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Mix pudding and milk: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Sonic Vanilla Shake Instant Pudding mix and whole milk until well combined.
  2. Add liqueur: Whisk in the Baileys Vanilla Mint Shake Liqueur thoroughly into the pudding mixture.
  3. Thicken mixture: Continue whisking for about 3 minutes until the mixture starts to thicken. If you desire a greener color, add a drop of green food coloring at this stage; however, this step is optional.
  4. Fold in Cool Whip: Gently fold the thawed Cool Whip into the pudding mixture to keep it light and airy.
  5. Whisk smooth: Whisk the combined mixture until it is smooth and fully incorporated.
  6. Refrigerate initial mix: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill and further thicken.
  7. Portion into glasses: After chilling, evenly divide the pudding mixture among shot glasses, then refrigerate for an additional 3 hours to set properly.
  8. Garnish and serve: When ready to serve, top each pudding shot with a dollop of whipped cream and a maraschino cherry for a festive presentation.

Notes

  • If a stronger mint flavor or greener color is desired, add green food coloring and/or a few drops of peppermint extract carefully.
  • These pudding shots are best served well chilled, so ensure proper refrigeration time.
  • Use shot glasses or small dessert cups for easy serving and portion control.
  • Can be prepared a day ahead and kept covered in the fridge for convenience.
  • Ensure Cool Whip is thawed completely before folding it into the pudding to maintain texture.
