Ingredients

Scale

Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate Ingredients

  • 2 Packages Hot Chocolate Mix
  • 3 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream
  • 2 Cups Milk
  • 2 Cups Ice Cubes
  • 1/4 cup Smirnoff Peppermint Twist
  • 1 package Peppermints (a few crushed to sprinkle on top)
  • Whipped Cream (to top)


Instructions

  1. Prepare Glasses: Place 4 milkshake glasses in the freezer to chill while you prepare the drink.
  2. Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the hot chocolate mix, vanilla ice cream, milk, ice cubes, and Smirnoff Peppermint Twist liqueur. Blend until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well incorporated.
  3. Serve Drink: Remove the chilled glasses from the freezer and pour the frozen chocolate mixture into each cup until full.
  4. Add Toppings: Top each serving with a generous amount of whipped cream, then sprinkle crushed peppermint candies over the whipped cream for added flavor and decoration.
  5. Enjoy: Insert a colorful straw, serve immediately, and enjoy this festive boozy frozen treat.

Notes

  • Use full-fat vanilla ice cream for the creamiest texture.
  • Adjust the amount of peppermint liqueur to control the booziness.
  • Crushed peppermint candies add both flavor and a decorative touch but can be omitted if preferred.
  • This recipe is best served immediately to maintain the frozen texture.
  • For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the Smirnoff Peppermint Twist and add extra milk or peppermint extract to taste.
