Tips
- Chill your shot glasses beforehand to keep the shooters extra cool and refreshing.
- Use high-quality store-bought or homemade salted caramel sauce for the best flavor.
- For a more decorative presentation, use a piping bag with a star tip when adding whipped cream.
- If you want to make these ahead of time, prepare the eggnog mixture and keep it refrigerated, adding whipped cream and nutmeg just before serving.
- For an adult version, consider adding a splash of bourbon or rum to the eggnog mixture.
- Use fresh, finely ground nutmeg if possible for the most aromatic garnish.
- Serve immediately after preparation to maintain the perfect texture and temperature.
