- 6 oz. Whole Milk
- 1.5 Tbsp. Sweetened Cocoa Powder
- Whipped Cream
- 1-2 oz. Bailey's Irish Cream
- Chocolate Chips
- Peppermint Sugar

Combine the milk and the sweetened cocoa powder in a medium sized pot over low heat until the mixture is both warmed and fully combined.

Pour your warmed cocoa mixture into a Merry & Bright Christmas Mug.

Measure out the amount of Bailey's Irish Cream you would like to add and pour it into the cocoa mixture.

Add a heaping serving of whipped cream to the top of your hot cocoa mug.

Get creative with your toppings! We wanted to add a fun holiday flavor to our hot cocoa, so we topped our whipped cream with some peppermint sugar for a delicious but mild candy cane flavor. We also wanted to add a little more chocolate (who doesn't?!), so we added some dark chocolate chips too.

Dress up your Merry & Bright Christmas Mug by adding a Stag Stir Stick and a Silver Paper Straw for a fun and festive look!
Keep plenty of extra Irish Peppermint Hot Cocoa on hand in a carafe for guests to enjoy all evening.
