You have got to love spiked hot chocolate and this is one of the best recipes out there for it. Both peppermint schnapps and crème de menthe add that minty snap to this intensely chocolate warm drink. There's also a Peppermint Patty on the rocks that you might also enjoy, it has all the same wonderful flavors without the warmth.

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz peppermint schnapps
  • 1/2 oz dark crème de cacao
  • 1 tsp crème de menthe
  • hot chocolate
  • whipped cream
  • shaved chocolate or chocolate sprinkles for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the liqueurs into an Irish coffee glass.
  2. Fill with hot chocolate.
  3. Top with whipped cream.
  4. Garnish with shaved chocolate or chocolate sprinkles.
