Mix it Up!

Halloween is over, and given Thanksgiving's growing inability to block the Christmas season from early November, it's finally time for peppermint cocoa—fun peppermint cocoa, courtesy of UW-Madison junior Casey Strecker. 

 

To create the perfect holiday mixer, add two shots of peppermint schnapps (or one shot 100 proof schnapps for those who like to get ""extra warm"") to a hot cup of cocoa. Follow it up with a half-shot of vanilla liqueur, a blast of whipped cream and a cherry. Curl up on the couch and realize how much better ""A Claymation Christmas Celebration""—starring the California Raisins—is when you've had some cocoa.
