Waitrose Cooks’ Ingredients Strawberry Dust to garnish

Method

Sprinkle the strawberry dust in an even layer over a saucer, moisten the rim of the glass then roll in the dust to coat.

Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl in 30 second bursts in the microwave then leave to cool slightly.

Pour the vodka and syrup into the bowl with the chocolate and stir until smooth.

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, add the chocolate mixture then shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
