Ingredients in a Scooby Snack Shot
- Coconut Rum – I used Malibu.
- Banana Liqueur – This adds so much flavor to the recipe!
- Melon Liqueur – Such as Midori.
- Pineapple Juice
- Heavy Cream – This gives the shot a nice creamy flavor and pastel color.
- Whipped Cream – Optional for garnish.
- Garnish Ideas – Maraschino Cherry or Scooby Snack Cookie.
Directions
In a cocktail shaker (or mason jar), mix all liquid ingredients along with some ice.
Shake for 15 seconds.
Pour into a shot glass and garnish with whipped cream, a maraschino cherry or a Scooby Snack cookie. Serve immediately.
Tips for Making
- I used a cherry to garnish my shot. A more quirky alternative are these Scooby Snack cookies which look exactly like dog treats (they are actually graham crackers).
- You can use only banana liqueur or only melon liqueur to decrease your ingredients list.
- This is not a good recipe to make in advance (the cream can separate from the other ingredients). It’s best served immediately after making.
How did the Scooby Snack Shot get its name?
Legend has it that the Scooby Snack shot got its name from a beloved (discontinued) fruit snack by the same name and the same bright green color. I’ve also read it was named after Shaggy’s green shirt or the Mystery Machine Van, which are bright green. The true origin will remain unsolvable, but people will continue to make this recipe, so cheers to the mystery!
Variations
- Vegan Scooby Snack Shot – Omit the heavy cream and choose a vegan whipped cream option to create a dairy-free version of this shot.
- Scooby Snack Martini – Double the recipe and serve in a martini glass for a full-size drink.
- Blue Scooby Snack Shot – Swap Midori for Blue Curacao for a blue version of this fruity shot.
