Content:

If you're a fan of bold flavors and a hint of spiciness, then this Mexican Candy Shot recipe is perfect for you. Combining the vibrant flavors of traditional Mexican candies with a kick of tequila, this shot is sure to excite your taste buds. Gather your ingredients and get ready for a fiesta in your mouth!

Ingredients:

1 ounce tequila (silver or reposado)

1/2 ounce watermelon liqueur

1/2 ounce lime juice

Tajin seasoning (for rimming the shot glasses)

Assorted Mexican candies (such as tamarind or mango-flavored candies) for garnish

Instructions:

Begin by rimming your shot glasses with Tajin seasoning. To do this, pour some Tajin onto a small plate. Wet the rim of each shot glass by running a lime wedge around the edge, then dip the glass into the Tajin seasoning to coat the rim.

In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, watermelon liqueur, and lime juice. Add ice and shake vigorously for about 10 seconds to ensure the ingredients are well mixed and chilled.

Strain the mixture into the prepared shot glasses, filling them up about three-quarters of the way.

Now, it's time to add a touch of Mexican candy flair. Take your chosen assortment of Mexican candies and garnish each shot glass with a small piece or sprinkle some crushed candy on top. This will not only enhance the visual appeal but also infuse the shot with a burst of authentic Mexican flavor.

Serve the Mexican Candy Shots immediately to enjoy the combination of sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors. Sip it slowly to savor the taste or shoot it back for an instant burst of excitement.

Note: Feel free to experiment with different types of Mexican candies to suit your preferences. Some popular choices include tamarind-based candies like Pulparindo or mango-flavored candies like Mango Lucas.
