Tomato Gazpacho Shots are a refreshing and fun way to enjoy a classic Spanish cold soup. Made with ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, and a touch of garlic, these shots are bursting with fresh flavors.
Serve these shots chilled, in small glasses or shot glasses. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of chopped herbs like basil or cilantro for extra freshness.
Pair them with light appetizers like bruschetta, cheese platters, or shrimp cocktail. They’re also great as a palate cleanser between courses at a dinner party.
A little story: I first had gazpacho shots at a summer party, and they were a hit! They’re now my go-to for entertaining when I want something easy and impressive.
Enjoy these cool and zesty Tomato Gazpacho Shots for a delightful start to any meal or as a refreshing snack on a hot day!
