First step of our blueberry coconut shooter’s is placing the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator for several hours, make sure the can is not in the fridge door or being shaken up. The coconut milk is going to separate into two layers, the top layer will be thick and liquid at the bottom. You are going to scoop the top layer and place it in a bowl, discarding the water at the bottom. Whisk the coconut and sweetened condensed milk together and set aside.
While the coconut milk is in the refrigerator follow the steps for making the blueberry syrup. Muddle the mint, lime and rum together until the mint releases all of its oils into the liquid, strain out the mint using a cocktail shaker. Next get out your shot glasses and evenly distribute the blueberry syrup into the bottoms of each glass. Now pour a layer of the rum mix into each shot glass and top it off with the coconut milk mixture, this will give the shot a beautiful ombre look. If you need mix each shot with a toothpick to exaggerate the ombre effect. We topped ours with a sprig of mint, but it’s not necessary.

These blueberry coconut shooter’s are a crowd pleaser for any ladies night. They look beautiful and are really easy to drink. Let us know if you make this recipe by commenting our tag us in your instagram pic of your shooter’s.
