About the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shot
If you're a fan of the cereal Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and you just happen to fancy the same flavor in a libation, then this Cinnamon Toast Crunch recipe is for you. It's fun, sweet, and spicy, so it's a perfect choice for parties, happy hours and other events where shots aren't out of place.Rumchata and FireballBelieve it or not, the Cinnamon Toast Crunch shot is a simple combination of just two ingredients: Rumchata and Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey. When mixed together, the duo has a flavor that is very similar to Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, and some fans of this drink have experienced feelings of deja-vu while waxing nostalgic about their childhood.You can shake the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shot with ice and strain it into a couple shot glasses, knocking the drink back quickly in one go, or you can pour the drink into a rocks glass or cocktail glass, if you want to enjoy it more slowly. Either way, try accenting the drink with a cinnamon sugar rim for a little extra flavor with each sip.Fireball and RumchataFireball is a 33% ABV cinnamon whiskey that combines Canadian whisky, cinnamon flavoring and sweeteners. It is the best-selling cinnamon flavored whiskey and among the best-selling whiskeys in the United States, by volume. Rumchata is a 13.75% ABV cream liqueur made from rum, dairy cream, cinnamon, vanilla, sugar, and other flavorings. It's the second best-selling cream liqueur after Bailey's, and the name is a play on horchata, the traditional Mexican rice drink. Put them together in equal parts, give it all a shake in a cocktail shaker, and you get this fun concoction.If you make the Cinnamon Toast Crunch cocktail and think it needs a bit more vanilla flavor to mirror the cereal, try adding a touch of vanilla vodka to the recipe alongside that Rumchata and Fireball. You can add it in the same proportions as the other ingredients, and this will boost the alcohol content while also lending more of that vanilla sweetness you crave.To Each Their OwnWe don't quite get the allure of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch drink ourselves. When we crave Cinnamon Toast Crunch we eat a bowl of cereal, and when we crave booze we drink booze—but this mixed drink certainly seems to enjoy some popularity. So hey, to each their own.
