Chocolate Cherry Shooters are an irresistibly delicious treat that combines the rich, velvety flavor of chocolate with the sweet, tangy burst of cherry. These delightful beverages are perfect for celebrating special occasions, especially New Year’s Eve, where indulgence and festivity go hand in hand. The smooth, chocolatey base is complemented by a hint of cherry liqueur, creating a harmonious blend that excites the palate. Their vibrant appearance and decadent taste make them a popular choice for party guests seeking a luxurious and memorable experience.

When paired with chocolate-covered Strawberry Shooters, the combination elevates the dessert experience to a new level of indulgence.

Make your own chocolate shooter cups using melted chocolate wafers. I recommend Ghirardelli chocolate wafers found in any grocery baking isle.  Or premade chocolate cups can be found on Amazon.

Ingredients

  1. 1-part Kahlua coffee liqueur
  2. 1-part amaretto almond liqueur
  3. 1-part white Crème de cacao
  4. 1 dash grenadine syrup
  5. Container for your shot (I recommend a mini chocolate cup)

Process

  1. Mix the first 4 ingredients and then add the grenadine syrup
  2. Fill your choice vessel with the mixture, top with a cherry or whip cream.

These Chocolate Covered Strawberry Shooters are the ultimate indulgence for your next gathering. Perfectly portioned for a sweet and boozy treat, these shooters are as visually stunning as they are delicious. Whether it’s a chic dessert cocktail or a playful toast to the evening, they’re guaranteed to impress.

Ingredients

  • I recommend Ghirardelli chocolate wafers found in any grocery baking isle.  
  • 1 part Vanilla vodka
  • 1 part Godiva Liquor
  • 1 part Chocolate syrup
  •  Whipped cream
  • Sprinkles
  • Parchment covered pan

Process

  1. Cut the point of the strawberry off the bottom of a large, fresh strawberry so they can stand on their own, the melted chocolate helps form a little base too which makes them even more stable.
  2. Hull out the strawberries using a paring knife and grapefruit spoon, be careful not to make the walls too thin or they’ll break.
  3. Pat the strawberries inside and outside dry with a paper towel before dipping in melted chocolate.
  4. Remove from melted chocolate and place on parchment paper to allow chocolate to drip forming a base for strawberry to stand freely.
  5. Freeze chocolate covered strawberries until chocolate has formed a hard shell.  
  6. Mix the vodka, Godiva Liquor and chocolate syrup together. Pour liquid into each individual strawberry, top with whipped cream and festive sprinkles.
