More About This Recipe

Turn two bottles of booze into these beautiful sprinkle-rimmed birthday cake shots with this super quick cocktail idea. Because, Birthday You deserves a sweet boozy toast! Form an assembly line for your rimming ingredients. Dip the tips of each shot glass into the tinted frosting, then pop in a pot of rainbow sprinkles to rim. Squeeze a smidgen of pink gel food coloring into the bottom of a Mason jar or re-sealable pitcher. You can use any resealable pitcher but Mason jars work well because there are little measuring lines printed right on the outside. It's the ultimate cocktail shaker for a crowd! Pour in some vodka and shake-shake-shake until your concoction is bright pink. Add some chilled cream liqueur and you'll have a beautiful, milky mixture that screams, "Sip me!"
