Peppermint hot chocolate is one of my favorite winter pick-me-ups. So, thankfully, Kahlúa's newly released, limited-edition Peppermint Mocha flavor arrived just in time to get me through the holidays. This festive liqueur adds a minty dose of cheer to a standard cup of hot cocoa—so consider serving the recipe below at an upcoming holiday party or as a signature cocktail at your winter wedding:
Kahlúa Peppermint Mocha Hot Chocolate
2 parts milk
1 part drinking chocolate
1 part Kahlúa Peppermint Mocha
Bring milk to a simmer. Whisk in drinking chocolate. Simmer for 30 seconds while stirring. Add Kahlúa Peppermint Mocha. Garnish with peppermint stick and marshmallows.
