How to Make Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shots
Step 1: Pour a shallow layer of simple syrup to a small plate. Add ground cinnamon and sugar to another plate, mixing the two together. Dip the rim of the shot glass into the syrup, then into the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Step 2: Add 1 ounce of Fireball to your shot glass.

Step 3: Add an ounce of creamy RumChata and enjoy!

That’s really all there is to it. So easy, right? And just wait until you taste it!

Tips & Tricks
- Be sure to adjust your amounts for your glass size. Since the ingredients are in a one-to-one ratio this is super easy. We used 2 ounce shot glasses, but if yours are larger or smaller, you can adjust accordingly.
- For a special treat, you can skip the cinnamon sugar rim and used finely crushed Cinnamon Toast Crunch instead. It will add even more yummy cinnamon flavoring to the shots! You can even top with whipped cream too!
- If you’re planning to make these for a party, you can put the Fireball and RumChata in the fridge to chill beforehand. Or you can make a large batch in a cocktail shaker with ice, then pour into shot glasses.

You can! This recipe can be turned into a regular drink if you prefer. Just double the recipe, then serve over ice in a rocks glass and finish with a cinnamon stick garnish.
