When I entertain around holiday time I like to serve a little bit for everyone. I love the traditional recipes for our favorite food and drinks but I will also stick in something new, just to keep things exciting. If I am creating a dining experience I want my guests to remember, then I can’t forget to offer a beverage that compliments the meal!
Sure, I like to make the usual seasonal cocktails for the adults, but what about the kids? Sometimes they like to have a festive beverage, a pint-sized version just for them. To simplify things I make this hot drink. I have a carafe for the adults and one for the kids as well. This lightly spiced creamy drink is made healthier with the addition of Silk Soymilk instead of whole milk. With a dash of cinnamon and Angostura bitters* this winter warmer will bring a rosy glow to your cheeks!
*Adds a trivial amount of alcohol
