New recipie: Kahlua Strawberry Shots

So, I joined a BBQ team this year and while it has its own host of stories, one pertinent tidbit of information that I thought I should offer up that is mostly unrelated to BBQ is something new that I experienced in the way of artful intoxication. This really seemed to help the transition from eating and hanging out to a full on frenzy on the dance floor (read: it will get females dance floor tipsy in a hurry).

What you need:
-fresh strawberries, with stems and cores removed with a paring knife so as to create a hollow cup-like vessel
-vodka or grain alcohol
-kahlua or other coffee liquer
-whipped cream

1. Soak the prepared strawberries in the vodka or grain alcohol for an hour or two in the fridge to absorb some of the booze and to cool them off.

2. Pour the strawberry shot glasses full of Kahlua and top with whipped cream, preferrably the stuff in the can.

3. Eat the whole thing and enjoy.

Let me know what observations and comments you have on this, variations you come up with or have heard of, or even better, stories and pictures of the results of trying it on your own.

Cheers!

Sounds a like fun summer shot. Maybe I'll try this instead of jello-shots to get sorority chicks drunk at our rush parties.

Sounds really good--as long as someone else plans ahead. Shots are usually "spur of the moment" for me. But next time I'm sitting around in the afternoon thinking 'I'd love to have some shots with fruit and Kahlua later' I'll definitely give this one a "shot" (pun not intended, but turned out to work so I'll throw some quotes around it).

Approved.
