Looking for a great holiday cocktail? I have the perfect one for you in this post. It’s also more economical because when buying thte new 1 Liter bottle of Patrón Silver Tequila, you can have a party and not worry about running out of spirits.
This new cocktail, Cocoa Caliente is from the Henry at Life Hotel in NYC. It’s a spiced hot chocolate that will warm you up and put you in the holiday spirit! If you are in NYC and visit the Henry (Life Hotel) and order this cocktail, 10% of the proceeds will be donated to the City Harvest! What a smart way to celebrate the season: sipping a spiced up hot chocolate cocktail and giving back to a great charity at the same time!
Cocoa Caliente (Serves 4)
Created by Cecelia Steffensen and Pamela Wiznitzer and available at the Henry at the Life Hotel in NYC
Ingredients:
4.5 oz Patrón Silver (Use the 2018 Limited Edition Patrón Silver Tequila 1 Liter bottle)
500 grams Heavy Cream (about 17 ounces*)
500 grams Whole Milk
2 Cinnamon Sticks
2 whole pieces Allspice
0.5 grams Cardamom
5 grams Cornstarch
200 grams Chocolate Nyangbo (about 7 ounces*)
*Note – for easy proportioning, you can use equal parts cream and milk, and use 40% as much chocolate in the recipe*
Method:
1 day ahead of your party, do the following:
Toast all the spices in a pot, then add to the milk and heavy cream and let it rest overnight.
The next day, put everything in a pot add the cornstarch, bring it to a boil while continually whisking.
Strain + pour the mix over the chocolate.
Pour Patrón Silver in mug and top with spiced chocolate mix.
Top with Patrón-infused marshmallow.
Enjoy!
I love how this cocktail looks and sounds. It’s got HOLIDAY written all over it!
