Spiked Hot Chocolate Recipes
I have 15 delicious spiked hot chocolate recipes from some pretty amazing bloggers listed below. I’m really excited to try the Coconut Kahlua Hot Chocolate from Healthy Nibbles and the Spiked Butterscotch Hot Chocolate from Dizzy, Busy and Hungry.
I don’t do it too often, but I do enjoy a Bailey’s and hot chocolate from time to time but now I think I may dress it up and try out the following boozy hot chocolate recipes.
Maybe 1 hot chocolate cocktail a week for the next 15 weeks?
What alcohol goes best with hot cocoa?
- Spiced rum may be the best addition to hot chocolate. Chocolate and rum have a natural pairing that is hard to beat.
- Baileys Irish Cream keeps the general consistency and creaminess of hot cocoa intact and creates a really drinkable flavor.
- Kahlua’ is a natural addition as well that transforms the chocolate into a rich desert like flavor.
- Whiskey can be added to produce that adult flavored hot chocolate that is unique and boozy-licious.
- Rumchata this is actually my favorite as Rumchata has cinnamon and vanilla flavors. When combined with chocolate, it is truly amazing.
Is spiked hot chocolate easy to make?
Yes! In fact, you really can’t go wrong. The best tasting boozy hot chocolate will start with a milk base, but you can make it with powered chocolate and it will still be really good.
Simply get your best hot chocolate whipped up, add in your favorite adult beverage, and maybe top it with a bit of whipped cream and you will have an instant hit!
