- Green food coloring
- White sprinkles

How to Make Christmas Cookie Ice Cream Shots

3 — Pour the blended ice cream mixture into the prepared shot glasses. Serve immediately.

- For a non-alcoholic version: Omit the alcohol and substitute for 2-ounces of milk.
- Garnish ideas: Top with crushed candy canes, whipped cream or a sprig of mint.
