These autumnal pudding shots turn a popular [Starbucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-spice-espresso-martini) beverage into a quick and delicious way to get drunk. This essentially takes an innocent part of your weekday routine and corrupts it for the weekend. From the blog That's So Michelle, the [Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte Pudding Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-spice-duo-flight) provide a decadent alternative to your more traditional jello shooters and make delicious [boozy party treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-whipshots).

To recreate this seasonal recipe at home, you will need Starbucks Via Instant Latte mix in Pumpkin Spice Latte, vanilla or pumpkin spice latte-flavored instant pudding, Cool Whip, milk and either vodka, spiced rum or bourbon. Shot glasses will also be required, plus more Cool Whip or whipped cream for topping and green straws for added decoration.
