This Scooby Doo shot tastes like a tropical dessert in a glass! Coconut rum, banana liqueur, pineapple juice, and heavy cream combine to create a creamy, fruity, and Caribbean-inspired flavor that elevates any party to the next level.

These Scooby Doo shots deliver a taste of the tropics, a pretty color, and a slightly sweet flavor. We love serving this shot alongside other summery drinks like our Key Lime pie shot. They have a bright flavor that works perfectly with party snacks like Big Mac egg rolls or this cinnamon sugar churro popcorn.
