Coconut RumChata Pudding Shots
These creamy pudding shots with RumChata are the best thing EVER! Honestly, RumChata was made for pudding shots.
RumChata
One of my most popular cocktail recipes is my Pineapple Coconut RumChata Cocktail. For good reason too.
Try my Pumpkin Spice RumChata Pudding Shots this fall!
RumChata is a creamy rum. Add creamy rum to coconut cream jello pudding and it is irresistible.
Pudding Shots
Shots are fun! Especially when they taste sinfully delicious. If you like sweet shots where you can’t taste the alcohol then you will love my Pineapple Upside Down Cake Shots. I even put a maraschino cherry at the bottom of that shot!
Tips for making and serving Rumchata Pudding Shots
- You can buy these exact plastic cups with lids on Amazon. Here is the link: Jello-Shot Cups with Lids
- Let the RumChata Pudding Shots thaw for about 10 minutes once removing them from the freezer.
- You may want to buy these little spoons so your friends can spoon out the shot.
- Add the whipped cream right before you serve. The Redi Whip will meltdown over time.
- Toast coconut in your oven’s broiler for a few minutes for a gorgeous and tasty garnish.
- Use the below recipe but swap out flavors of pudding for different shots.
- This recipe makes around 24 shots. When planning for your party I would estimate 2 shots per person.
- Keep the pudding shots in the freezer when not being served and store leftovers in the freezer.
Keep out of sight and reach of children.
Occasions to Celebrate
These pudding shots are great for:
- parties
- bridal showers
- bachelorette parties

It is instant. Will clarify on the recipe card.
