Notes
- Use mini mason jars or small shot glasses for easy serving and portion control.
- Chilling time is crucial for pudding shots to set, so plan ahead for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Adjust the bourbon amount if you prefer a stronger or milder alcoholic flavor.
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit bourbon and increase eggnog slightly.
- Garnishing with cinnamon sticks adds a seasonal flair and aroma but is optional.
