Booze and football together, is like peanut butter and jelly.  One should always be served with the other.  Watching football with a glass of milk……WHAT?  No, no, no!  Let’s try this again, watching football with a bottle of beer, or a shot of bourbon……PERFECT!. Today I am presenting you with a recipe for some bourbon shots.  Let’s drink responsibly, while enjoying a few Spicy Strawberry Bourbon Shots.



Several bloggers are kicking off football season in style by enjoying #10DaysofTailgate.  You will see cocktail recipes, appetizers, side dishes, main entrees, all perfect for a football party.



For this recipe, I added Carrot Karma Hot Sauce from Intensity Academy Gourmet & Hot Sauce Company.  This sauce is unique, yet so delicious.  I loved adding it to my nachos, and especially to this bourbon recipe.  I also added some Basil from the Gourmet Garden Herbs.  Two unique additions, yet they complimented this recipe perfectly.  I really enjoy the Gourmet Garden herbs, with the squeeze bottles you have no mess, and they’re easy to store in your refrigerator.  Thank you so much Intensity Academy Gourmet & Hot Sauce Company, and Gourmet Garden Herbs!
