Made from hollowed out [kiwi fruit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiwi-strawberry-hard-cider) and filled with sweet white rum, these edible shooters are perfect for any summer party. These kiwi shooters are easy to make and only require a few basic ingredients. To make the shot glasses themselves, you will need to use a melon baller to scoop out the flesh of a few fresh kiwis. While kiwi skin is edible, you can peel the fruit to make it easier to eat. Once you have your clever shot glasses assembled, you will need to mix the alcoholic filling. Combine white rum with pineapple juice in a shaker and then strain the mixture into the kiwis. Top off each shooter with a splash of ginger ale and enjoy your tasty tropical shots. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Edible Shot Glasses:** Creating shot glasses made from edible materials provides a unique and interactive drinking experience. - **Fruit-based Cocktails:** Incorporating fruits as the main ingredient in cocktails offers a refreshing twist on traditional drink options. - **DIY Party Treats:** The trend of making creative and customizable treats for parties allows for a personalized and entertaining experience. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can explore the creation of innovative products and recipes using edible shot glasses. - **Event Planning:** Event planners can incorporate fruit-based cocktails and DIY party treat stations to enhance the overall guest experience. - **Kitchen Tools and Gadgets:** Developing specialized kitchen tools like melon ballers or fruit corers specifically for creating edible shot glasses can cater to this trend. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pouch-Packaged Vodka Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slim-shooters.md) - [Sophisticated Jello Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solid-wiggles.md) - [Dirty Martini Jelly Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-jellies.md) - [Spicy Mango Tequilas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mango-shotta.md) - [Spicy Shot Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-heat-shot.md) - [Gin Shooter Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wattshot.md) - [Edible Cocktail Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-shots1.md) - [Ready-to-Pour Tea Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kamoti.md) - [Cinnamon Whiskey Jello Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-whiskey-geltain-shot.md)
