Prepare Glasses
Rim shot glasses with lemon juice and dip in pastel sugar crystals (optional). Set aside. -
Make the Fluffy Base Layer
In a shaker with ice, combine cotton candy vodka, whipped cream vodka, and cream soda or marshmallow syrup. Add a pinch of edible glitter and shake until well chilled.
➤ Fill each shot glass about ¾ full with this shimmering pink base. -
Create the Glow Topper
In a separate cup, gently mix tonic water, lemon juice, and shimmer.
➤ Slowly float this on top using the back of a spoon. The result is a two-tone pastel swirl with glowing shimmer. -
Add Cotton Candy Cloud
Just before serving, gently perch a small fluff of cotton candy on the rim or top of each shot. It will dissolve into the drink when touched — a fun interactive touch.
