Thread: Non-Alcoholic uses for Shot Glasses?

Tweet

I found some really cool black shot glasses. We arent drinkers and dont plan on serving any alcohol this year. Anyone have any ideas for using these? Other than regular jello shots, I am at a loss. Thanks guys

Dessert shots Pudding, mousse, etc

You can make individual cheesecake shots in them. Layer the ready made cheesecake filling with flavored pie fillings and graham cracker crumbs.

Oh wow. Yummy. I'd never even thought about mousse or cheesecake! Thanks

A number of restaurants have been using the shot glasses to serve mini desserts in--Applebees, Chilis on the national level for example. I bought a bunch of them just for that purpose during a party. Keep in mind that due to their small neck, you might need espresso spoons to give out with the desserts for people to eat anything non-liquid.

If you have cheese cube/pickle/olive trays out you could set the shot glasses out with toothpicks in them for people eat the snacks with. Or little cocktail swords. You could also do candy shots - just fill them with something like m&ms or nerds.

Shot glasses are so small that if you are not using them for intended purpose they are not much use except for holing toothpicks.

You can always ship them to me and I'll use them for their intended purpose.

Oh I forgot to mention that another popular use for them is for soup shooters. Split green pea could be something like Alien Blood; borscht-like soup could be Vampire's Desire.

Jumping back to drinks of a non-alcoholic nature, a cranberry juice inspired shooter could also pass for Vampire's Desire. I decided that I really like that name!

I like this idea too! Good way to keep the young and old sticky hands out of a bowl of candy.
