Any coarse sugar works, but you can use brown sugar for a hint of molasses flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dutch-processed cocoa<\/strong> Provides a deep, intense chocolate flavor that forms the base of this luxurious drink. If unavailable, use natural cocoa powder, though it tastes slightly different.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ground cinnamon and nutmeg:<\/strong> These spices add warmth and complexity, complementing the chocolate with a subtle hint of spice. Nutmeg can be omitted if you prefer a simpler flavor profile.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Milk:<\/strong> 2% milk creates a creamy, smooth texture essential for a rich hot chocolate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kahlua (Coffee Liqueur):<\/strong> Adds a coffee-flavored kick, enhancing the chocolate with a rich, boozy note. Bailey Irish Cream or rum can be substituted for different flavor profiles.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Marshmallows and miniature marshmallows (optional):<\/strong> These add a sweet, gooey topping that melts into the hot chocolate, enhancing its texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salted caramel sauce (optional):<\/strong> Adds a sweet and salty contrast that pairs wonderfully with the chocolate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chocolate syrup (optional):<\/strong> For extra chocolate flavor and a visually appealing drizzle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Mix the dry ingredients<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2025503\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spiked-Hot-Chocolate_TOHD_24_186436_ChristineMa_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Mix dry ingredients\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Christine Ma for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Whisk together the sugar, cocoa, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small saucepan.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Add the milk<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2025504\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spiked-Hot-Chocolate_TOHD_24_186436_ChristineMa_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Add the milk\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Christine Ma for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Gradually whisk in the milk.

Remove the cinnamon stick before serving. It will infuse the hot chocolate with a warm, spicy note and the vanilla extract will add a smooth, aromatic undertone that pairs beautifully with the rich chocolate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Spiked Hot Chocolate<\/h2>\n<p>Store any leftover hot chocolate in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you reheat spiked hot chocolate?<\/h3>\n<p>Reheat spiked <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/recipes-using-hot-chocolate-mix\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/recipes-using-hot-chocolate-mix\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">hot cocoa<\/a> on the stovetop over low heat, stirring until it is warmed through.
