On the 12th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…
Twelve drummers drumming?! After twelve straight days of cocktails, it would take more than twelve drummers drumming to get me out of bed. Drink these cocktails in moderation (and make sure you are 21+)! If you are going to have any one Christmas cocktail this holiday season, these Boozy Frozen Hot Chocolate cocktails would be it…or the Rings of Gold cocktail…or the Espresso Milk Punch…or….you get the idea.
All of these Twelve Days of Christmas cocktails are wonderful to make, drink, and share, but let’s focus on these two scrumptious Boozy Frozen Hot Cocoa cocktails. Did you notice that in the martini glasses, with the garnishes, they look like drums (and drum sticks)? See what I did there?

Boozy Frozen Hot Chocolate
Some people like peppermint. Others, like me, do not. I made these Boozy Frozen Hot Chocolate cocktails two different ways to satisfy everyone’s tastes and celebrate the two most unique spicy tastes of the season, mint and cinnamon. Frozen hot cocoa is exactly as it sounds, but I have found most recipes consisting of hot cocoa mix, milk, and ice to be lacking in chocolate (there is never enough chocolate!!) so I made a few adjustments. I think you will agree this is more decadent!
