It is the Christmas season so fancy drinks are a must....
How about these....Two of my favourite things! Alcohol and Chocolate....hehehe
Chilli-spiced hot chocolate!
Hot chocolate with an injection of alcohol is one of the most delicious things in the world. This is certainly a winter warmer...
You will need:
250ml milk
3cm vanilla pod, seeds scraped out (or a drop of vanilla extract)
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp cocoa
1 tbsp single cream
a shot of rum (spiced is good if you have it but normal is fine as well)
tiny pinch of chilli flakes
2 cloves
½ cinnamon stick (or 1 tsp powder)
250ml milk
3cm vanilla pod, seeds scraped out (or a drop of vanilla extract)
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp cocoa
1 tbsp single cream
a shot of rum (spiced is good if you have it but normal is fine as well)
tiny pinch of chilli flakes
2 cloves
½ cinnamon stick (or 1 tsp powder)
Infuse the milk, chilli, cloves, cinnamon and vanilla seeds together
in a pan over a low heat. Separately, whisk the sugar, cocoa and a
little cold milk together to form a paste, then add to the pan and whisk
together.
Add the cream, warm gently and finally add the spiced rum. Strain into cups to serve.
After Eight cocktail!
You will need:
1 shot of peppermint schnapps
3 shots chocolate milk (either follow the instructions on the back of whatever hot choc drink you've got, minus heating it up OR buy some chocolate flavoured milk)
Ice cubes or crushed ice
Fill a tall glass with ice cubes or crushed ice. Pour in the peppermint schnapps and the chocolate milk. Shake or stir well.
