Happy NATIONAL HOT COCOA DAY!



HOT COCOA COCKTAILS


Also known as Hot Chocolate or Cafe au Chocolat, Hot Cocoa is a heated beverage typically consisting of shaved chocolate, melted chocolate or cocoa powder, heated milk or water, and sugar.  In my house it was made with hot cocoa where my mother would warm up sugar, cocoa powder, a little water and a pinch of salt to create a chocolate liqueur then slowly add the milk.

Sometimes we got marshmallows, sometimes not.  This is the way I still make my hot cocoa, unless I'm lazy and use instant.

Enjoy your adult versions of Hot Cocoa.

National Hot Cocoa Day is December 12th.
