Winter is definitely coming. I’m currently sitting in the airport in Atlanta, en route to Costa Rica to visit my parents before Christmas, and I couldn’t leave you guys to fend for yourselves in the chilly weather without a little treat to warm you up. This pink hot chocolate recipe is exactly what you need to cheer yourself up on an especially frosty day.
I recently discovered a couple of cream liqueurs that are definitely going to be in heavy rotation for me this winter and knew I had to put together a yummy (and super easy) drink using one of them. I decided to use the Marshmallow Pop cream liqueur because it adds a nice bit of pink, though you can definitely substitute Cookies & Crazy for an equally yummy drink. I’m also thinking that Cookies & Crazy could make for an incredible s’mores cocktail – let me know if this is something you are interested in and I’ll whip something up!
Anyways, for this pink hot chocolate
