Original Winter Time Drinks
A warm and delicious hot drink is exactly what our insides need on those days when we are wearing extra clothes and have the fire on. Make your insides as warm as your outside by trying one or more of these tasty and warming beverages.
Top of the pile is everyone’s favorite winter warmer: hot chocolate. There are so many ways to enjoy this drink, so why not try some these variations. Some you will have tried, others may appeal to you and make you want to try them.
Hot chocolate with marshmallows or cream is a perennial favourite, that dark, delicious liquid looks good, smells good and boy does it taste good. The added sweetness that these two extra ingredients bring to the drink will satisfy anyone’s sweet tooth.
If you love mint, adding peppermint or something similar, will really perk up your hot chocolate. That classic combination of chocolate and mint, seamlessly blend together to make this a true winter warming drink, try it with a candy cane in it to add a subtle minty taste.
Why not try hot chocolate the way it should be made, and not the pale imitations that come from instant powders. Melt a bar of chocolate by pouring hot milk over it and then just stir until the chocolate is fully dissolved. If you are used to using powder, you’ll be amazed at the difference in the taste.
These are all great drinks, but what if you fancy something more fruity than chocolaty? Hot fruity drinks are very tasty and have a bit of sharpness to them thanks to the fruit.
Hot Cider could just be the drink that you’re looking for. Add some spices to give it a kick, or sweeten it up by adding something like Caramel.
If you are a fan of Hazelnut coffee, why not throw some chocolate into the mix by adding Nutella to your coffee? This drink then ends up almost like a dessert, and you will be pleasantly surprised by how well the 3 flavors combine.
