Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shot

Sharing is caring!

Whoever decided to add a little bit of Fireball whiskey to a Rumchata shot is an absolute genius! Named after the famous cinnamon toast crunch cereal, this is one cocktail recipe you will need to have up your sleeve for that special occasion.

A lot of people who know about the cinnamon toast crunch cereal are a bit skeptical about this “adult version” cinnamon sugar mixture. I was the same when I first came across a recipe for cinnamon whiskey.

However, since I already had a bottle of fireball whiskey in the cabinet, and a cocktail shaker that was gathering dust on the shelf, I decided to go out and get the final ingredient; a bottle of Rumchata.

After just one taste of this cinnamon toast crunch shot, I was hooked! Since then, I have tweaked my recipe a bit and will now share with you the ultimate cinnamon toast crunch shot recipe! If you’re feeling even more nostalgic, the gummy bear shot is also a great option.

What’s a Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shot?

A cinnamon toast crunch shot is simply a cocktail made with Rumchata and Fireball whisky.

It is garnished by a cinnamon sugar rim on the shot glass that gives it both its name and the unique cinnamon flavoring that you will soon love.

The creamy feel of the cinnamon toast crunch drink is what fans of the cocktail love the most, along with the subtle undertones of the Rumchata shot. If you like the creamy taste in your shots, our blow job shot recipe would be right up your alley too!

If you are a fan of sweet drinks, such as vanilla vodka, you should try a few cinnamon toast crunch shots and see what you have been missing!

How To Enjoy the Spicy Cinnamon Flavor

There are two common ways you can enjoy a cinnamon toast crunch drink; as a shot or in a rocks glass as a cocktail.

With such a strong sweet taste due to the addition of the granulated sugar mixture on the rims of the shot glasses, it’s easy to see why many people prefer to drink it as a cocktail.

By pouring your cinnamon toast crunch shot into a rocks glass, you get the benefit of diluting the sweet treat a bit using the ice cubes, which allows you to drink it slowly and thus enjoy your cinnamon toast crunch shot even more.

My Thoughts on Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shots

I used to love cinnamon sweet cereal growing up! Therefore, my verdict on the cinnamon toast crunch shot may be a bit biased. However, these are the key takeaways:

• Thanks to the cinnamon sugar mixture, this is a sweet drink! Therefore, it might not be for everyone but is worth a try
• Use ice to dilute the cinnamon sugar a bit and you will find it a lot more palatable
• Drink it once in a while because cinnamon toast crunch shots are not meant as an everyday drink

More About Fireball Cinnamon Whisky

Fireball whisky is produced in Canada by mixing Canadian whisky and cinnamon.

It is very sweet with a spicy after-taste that lends it the name Fireball!

At 33% ABV, Fireball whiskey has less alcohol than the standard whiskey, which is about 40% alcohol content. This is great because it helps you to drink responsibly

More About Rumchata

Made in Wisconsin, Rumchata is a creamy liquor created by mixing rum, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar, and cream.

This makes Rumchata a mixture of dairy and rum, which is great for making cocktails!

There are other drinks that you can make with Rumchata, such as Rumchata Coffee and Rumchata White Russian.

Although it is a creamy drink with lots of dairy qualities, Rumchata does not have to be refrigerated because the rum acts like a preservative that keeps all the other ingredients from going bad too quickly.

The result of this unique blend is that an opened bottle of Rumchata can be kept in a cabinet for up to nine months, while a sealed bottle will last for many years.
