Warming Winter Cocktails
The temperature is dipping in Cape Town as we approach the middle of July, and all I crave on these cold evenings in front of my gas heater are some winter cocktails to warm me up.
So I found a list of some interesting recipes that I had in my cupboard which I thought may be worth tasting.
The idea of livening up a hot cup of Earl Grey Tea with a local dark rum gets me excited while the S'More Hot Chocolate sounds like an entire meal in itself.
Try this recipe out and let me know what you think
Ingredients :
Two tablespoons of milk, white or dark Belgian chocolate buttons (if you are a chocoholic you can add more, and a mix of all three is delicious!)
200-250ml of hot milk, depending on your glass.
35ml shot of Amarula for a little local cream
How to make:
Melt a little chocolate to rim your glass so that the crushed digestives stick to it.
Stir your chocolate and liquor into the heated milk, and pour into a festive mug or glass of your choosing.
Then, wrap your hands around this cup of heaven and luxuriate in the sweet aroma and silky smooth taste.
I do love winter......!
