Equipment
- Shot glasses
- Cocktail shaker
- Measuring jigger
- Small plate (for rimming)
- Spoon or small whisk
Ingredients
- 1/2 oz butterscotch schnapps
- 1/2 oz Irish cream liqueur
- 1/4 oz amaretto liqueur
- Crushed peanuts for rimming
- Salt for rimming
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Prepare the Rim: Mix equal parts crushed peanuts and salt on a small plate. Moisten the rim of your shot glasses with a little water and dip them into the peanut and salt mixture to coat.
- Mix the Shot: In a cocktail shaker, combine butterscotch schnapps, Irish cream liqueur, amaretto, and a handful of ice cubes.
- Shake Well: Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to ensure the mixture is well-chilled.
- Serve: Strain the chilled liquid into your prepared shot glasses. Serve the Payday Shot immediately.
Notes
- Nut-Free Version: Omit the peanut rimming for a nut-free version of the Payday Shot, using cocoa powder mixed with salt instead.
- Vegan Payday Shot: Use vegan cream liqueur alternatives available in the market.
- Extra Nutty: Add a splash of hazelnut liqueur to intensify the nutty flavor of your Payday Shot.
- Dessert Shot: Top with a tiny scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert version of the Payday Shot.
- Spice It Up: Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the shaker for a spicy twist on your Payday Shot.
