Making the Perfect Tequila Rose Strawberry Whipped Pudding Shots

Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 (3.4 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix
• 1 ½ cups cold milk
• ½ cup Tequila Rose Strawberry Cream Liqueur
• 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed (like Cool Whip)
• Optional: Fresh strawberries, sliced for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Combine Pudding and Milk: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until well combined.
2. Add Tequila Rose: Pour in the Tequila Rose Strawberry Cream Liqueur and whisk until fully incorporated.
3. Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Be careful not to overmix.
4. Portion into Cups: Spoon the pudding mixture into small cups or shot glasses.
5. Chill: Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably longer, to allow the pudding to set properly.
6. Garnish (Optional): Before serving, garnish with a slice of fresh strawberry for a beautiful presentation.

Tips for the Best Pudding Shots

• Use Cold Milk: Using cold milk is crucial for the pudding to set quickly and properly.
• Don’t Overmix: Overmixing the pudding after adding the whipped topping can cause it to deflate and lose its airy texture.
• Chill Thoroughly: Allowing the pudding shots to chill for at least 2 hours is essential for them to set and develop their flavor.
• Experiment with Flavors: While vanilla pudding works best for this recipe, feel free to experiment with other pudding flavors like cheesecake or white chocolate.
• Adjust the Liqueur: Adjust the amount of Tequila Rose to your liking. For a stronger flavor, add a little more. For a milder flavor, add a little less.

Storing Your Pudding Shots

Tequila Rose Strawberry Whipped Pudding Shots can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make sure to cover them tightly with plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out or absorbing any odors from the fridge.

Variations and Add-ins

Chocolate Lover’s Delight

Berry Blast

Incorporate fresh or frozen berries like raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries into the pudding mixture for an extra burst of fruity flavor.

Oreo Crunch

Crush a few Oreo cookies and sprinkle them on top of the pudding shots for a delightful crunch.
