Notes
- Prepare the drink just before serving for the best taste and texture.
- Hot chocolate and liquor amounts can be multiplied and combined in advance but pour over individual glasses with ice cream before serving.
- Feel free to substitute the liquors with your favorites like rum, coconut rum, Bailey’s, or chocolate vodka for variety.
- You can use chocolate ice cream or a combination of vanilla and chocolate ice cream to change the flavor profile.
- This is a rich, indulgent drink with a balanced alcoholic taste; adjust the liquor amounts to suit your preference.
- Use a high-quality hot chocolate for the best flavor; Hershey’s cocoa powder mix is a recommended option.
