Winter Potables
Today’s one of those dreary, cold, super icy days, so I thought looking up warm, cozy drinks would be a good idea. I’ve compiled a number of interesting new and old recipes, some from friends’ recommendations and others from online. Let me know if you have other warm winter drinkable favorites!
Basic Mixes
A whole bag of marshmallows is still too few.
We don’t have to make everything complicated, especially when you can’t feel your fingers and it’s not safe to drive to the store! Some of my friends’ favorite simple drinks:
Hot apple cider & rum
Hot cocoa & peppermint schnapps
Tito’s vodka & splash of cranberry
Mexican hot chocolate – hot cocoa & a bit of chipotle and ground cinnamon
Hot cocoa & a scoop of mint chocolate ice cream
Easiest response from all my friends: “Gin.”
