For a richer flavor, use a high-quality vanilla extract. Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for optimal frying. Too low, and the tacos will be greasy; too high, and they will burn. Feel free to experiment with different fruits! Blueberries, raspberries, or even a sprinkle of shredded coconut would be delicious. These are best served immediately to maintain the crispiness of the taco shells. If making ahead, store the shells and filling separately and assemble just before serving.
