Great Tips!

How to Store Leftovers

If you have a leftover liquid mix, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake it well before serving again. Avoid storing whipped cream or garnishes with the mixture, as they won’t hold up well over time.

Salted Caramel Popcorn works also perfectly to enhance the sweet and salty flavors, Also you can try it with Chocolate-Covered Pretzels to amplify the salty-sweet balance. Each of these pairings I’m sure will make the shot even more enjoyable for you.
