Chocolate Margarita

Guess what I’ll be sipping on February 14th?  Okay scratch that… Guess what I’ll be sipping on from now until my birthday.

Chocolate and Tequila 

Really, can the world get any sweeter?  My love of tequila has taken on a whole new level of intensity since these two flavors happily married.  I mean what more can a girl ask for this Valentine Day?

Roses, yes thank you.

A sweet card, oh how thoughtful.

A shiny piece of jewelery, your too kind.

A great bottle of tequila and gorgeous chocolate,  te adoro carino!

Does my hubby know me or what?

What makes this margarita really shine is the homemade chocolate syrup.  After researching recipes online I found they all pretty much called for pre packaged syrup. Being that it is February, the month in where every morsel that graces my lips is dripping in chocolate I thought why not make a batch of homemade syrup just for margaritas.

The recipe makes plenty for margaritas and even a bit more for 3 tall cold glasses of chocolate milk for the hubby and kiddos.

A quick warning this Chocolate Margarita is no chocolate shake, no watered down chocolate concoction.

Mix up a pitcher and adjust to your preference.  Use the best quality chocolate you can find and don’t skimp on the liqueur.  Enjoy!
