This recipe was inspired by Chocolate Vodka Soaked Strawberries. I tried that recipe and posted it on cakestobake. While I enjoyed them I felt that I could tweak it some how. I have been drinking margaritas lately. So I thought what if I combined one of my ingredients from my delicious strawberry margaritas and used it with the chocolate covered strawberries? They turned out very delicious! I didn't soak these over night as the other recipe called for. I did decide to poke holes in the strawberry using a fork and that seemed to help the strawberries soak up the alcohol.
Ingredients
- Strawberries
- Patron Citronge (it is an orange liquor)
- 1 Tub of Bakers Dipping Chocolate (I prefer the milk chocolate)
Directions
- Wash and dry the strawberries.
- Use a fork to poke holes on all sides of the strawberries
- Put the strawberries in a container that has a lid. Fill with the Patron and cover. Soak in the fridge for at least 24 hours.(Since I poked the holes I soaked them for about 7 hours- to be honest I was impatient and didn't want to wait 24 hours. I am sure they would be even better at 24 hours)
- After 24 hours take out the strawberries and pat them dry.
- Melt the chocolate in the microwave according to the directions.
- Dip the strawberries in the chocolate and place on a plate that is covered with wax paper.
- Place the strawberries in the fridge to chill/harden.
Enjoy!
