Steps:
- Rinse strawberries and dry thoroughly. Use a syringe or clean marinade injector to inject about 2 teaspoons of brandy into each berry. Place them on a baking sheet, and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
- In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, combine bittersweet chocolate and shortening. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth. Stir in heavy cream and 1/4 cup of brandy. Place white chocolate in a separate bowl, and when the dark chocolate has melted, place the bowl of white chocolate over the pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Be sure to remove from heat as soon as it is mostly melted, white chocolate can be sensitive.
- Dip strawberries into chocolate, and let the excess drip off into the bowl before placing on waxed paper to set. When the strawberries have all been dipped in chocolate, dip a fork into the white chocolate, and drizzle back and forth over berries to stripe.

Steps:
- For the strawberry simple syrup: Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced strawberries. Using a fork, press the strawberries to release their juices. Allow the mixture to boil for 1 to 2 minutes. Steep for at least 10 minutes. Strain the mixture into a resealable jar. Cover and keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- For the mocktail: Combine the milk, chocolate syrup and strawberry simple syrup in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake until thoroughly chilled. Strain into 2 martini glasses. To garnish, place a strawberry on the rim of each glass, dust with grated chocolate and sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose ripe and juicy strawberries for the best flavor.
- Wash the strawberries thoroughly before dipping them in chocolate.
- Use a high-quality chocolate for dipping, such as dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate.

- If you want to add toppings to your chocolate-covered strawberries, such as nuts, sprinkles, or coconut, do so before the chocolate hardens.
- Store the chocolate-covered strawberries in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
