This week we’re getting our cocktail on early (who else is excited that this is a long weekend?) and I have one more spiked hot chocolate idea that I’m calling the Chocoletto. To make it you need:
- glass of your favorite hot cocoa
- 1 shot of amaretto
- 1/2 shot tres leches
Garnish with some shaved chocolate and enjoy!

With Valentine’s Day just on the horizon, how about a spicy dark hot chocolate (this one by Jessica Foster) spiked with Cointreau to share with your beau?
Simply mix up your favorite hot cocoa and add a one shot of Cointreau for a burst of orange flavor. Garnish with a marshmallow and orange twist. Enjoy!
And more chocolate and Valentine’s Day goodness can be found right here:

MelissaHello again to all of you SB Chic fans! After taking a brief hiatus, I’ve been concocting another slew of tasty treats to enjoy this winter. Today is one of my absolute favorites of the batch. With the Christmas parade tonight…I plan to be sipping on one of these bad boys throughout the night. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
~1 1/2 shot of Peppermint Schnapps
~1 cup of steamed milk
~1 scoop of unsweetened cocoa powder
~Sugar (to taste)
*Steam milk, add cocoa powder and sugar (Go easy on the sugar because the Peppermint Schnapps is pretty sweet), add Schnapps and garnish with whipped cream and marshmallows. If you’re in a pinch, a packet of hot chocolate mix will work just fine.
XOXO-Melissa
