Choco Taco Shot-tail
If you were born in the ‘80s, you are already familiar with the majesty that is the Choco Taco. For those unacquainted with what is, quite possibly, the greatest ice cream treat ever created, the Choco Taco consists of a waffle cone taco shell filled with vanilla ice cream and dipped in chocolate fudge and peanuts. The only thing better than the original is this boozy shot-tail made in its honor. A mix of dark rum, chocolate vodka and homemade peanut orgeat, it’s delectably salty, sweet and quaffable. For added effect, serve the shot in a fudge-dipped waffle cone, then eat the booze-soaked cone as a chaser.
