Tuesday Tipple


Gah, the weather has turned crappy...not that we are not thrilled for the rain, it's just the accompanying cold that I object to! Mind you, I have the strength of a wilted lettuce when it comes to the cold...
 
Let's have one of these then and we'll say no more about it!
 
Hot Peppermint Patty

2/3 Shot of peppermint schnapps

1/3 Shot of oz dark crème de cacao

1 tsp crème de menthe

Hot chocolate

Whipped cream

Shaved chocolate or chocolate sprinkles for garnish (or for plain ol' scoffing while no-one is looking)


Pour the liqueurs into an Irish coffee glass, fill with hot chocolate and top with whipped cream before garnish with shaved chocolate or chocolate sprinkles.

You are in luck, Steve - I have a wee bit left! (Well to be fair it is the bit that sloshed onto the carpet so excuse the extra fluff!)

Oh yes please! Our winter weather continues to drag on and I have the sniffles so this is the perfect tipple for me! Can I have some extra chocolate sprinkles, seeing as how I'm under the weather and all?
