Spicy Chocolate Strawberry Shots

Today I am sharing a sinful and seductive shot I created for Valentine’s Day but can be enjoyed any time of the year! This shot is perfect for a romantic night or hen’s party because it is easy to make and can serve a bunch of people with little effort. It is also amazing because the shot glass is edible chocolate, which means it could be a dessert shot, or an after-dinner shot to amp things up!

The spiciness and chocolate of the Patron XO Café Incendio blend so well with the strawberries it tastes like you are eating a spicy chocolate-covered strawberry, which is pretty divine. Patrón XO Cafe Incendio is a spicy and sweet liqueur that combines fiery Mexican arbol chile, the decadence of Criollo chocolate, and the crisp, smooth taste of Patrón Silver tequila for a drink with a devilish nature that is ideal for the colder months. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t need a tequila shot to get over those date night butterflies? It is time to be a little bit devilish so let’s take some shots to celebrate love!
