The Iconic Chocolate Cake Shot Your Next Birthday Needs
BY JAMES HASTINGS
Dessert-inspired shots are the perfect adult-only treat for celebrating a birthday, and you can stay on theme with a shot that recreates the pleasure of chocolate cake.
This chocolate cake shot recipe only requires three ingredients: a bottle of vanilla or lemon-flavored vodka, hazelnut liqueur, and a sugar-coated lemon wedge.
To make the shot, add a 1:1 ratio of vodka and hazelnut liqueur to a cocktail shaker and fill it with ice. Give the mixture a good shake, then pour out the shots and add the lemon.
The vodka and hazelnut liqueur replicate the taste of chocolate, and when you suck on the lemon afterward, the tart citrus fills your mouth with the taste of freshly baked cake.
