Margarita Shots!

Margarita Shots

I used kitchen shears to cut out the pulp.  Then a spoon finish up.  Cut a small circle off the bottom so they'll stand up.  Make sure not to cut through the pulp!

Next, salt the rim, just like you would a glass...

Then fill with you favorite Margarita shot, or just tequila.  I use Baha Bob's sugar free mix with Patron & Grand Marnier.  OR, I skip the mix and just use the lime juice from the limes I cut with a splash of Club Soda.  Cheers & Enjoy!

Birthday Cake Shots

Yield: 1 shot (but you can make up to 6 at a time in a standard martini shaker) Ingredients 1 ounce cake flavoured vodka (e.g. Pinnacle or Three Olives) 1 teaspoon dry white cake mix 1/2 ounce whipped cream flavoured vodka (e.g. Pinnacle) or chocolate liqueur 1/2 ounce half & half (10.5-18% fat cream) whipped cream (for topping) sprinkles (for topping) Method Shake all ingredients in a martini shaker with ice and strain into sprinkle-rimmed (optional) shooter or shot glass and top with whipped cream and more sprinkles. Notes The dry cake mix dissolves right into the drink when you shake it up in the martini shaker, I promise. If you can only find the cake vodka, you can always use more in place of the whipped cream vodka or chocolate liqueur--it's good both ways! Or, so they tell me. *ahem* You actually can't go wrong--you can improvise with any sweet liqueur along with the cake vodka. For some reason it all seems to work. Again, so they tell me.
