This party busting holiday drink will even make Santa put down his Mai Tai and join the Elves for a caroling good time!

Welcome to this weeks #SMR (Sunday Morning Ritual) Holiday cocktail, the Aztec Eggnog.

Recipe:

• 4 cups eggnog
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup grated Mexican chocolate
• 8 ounces (1 cup) reposado tequila
• Mexican chocolate shavings

Directions:

In a large saucepan, whisk together the eggnog, nutmeg, cloves, and cocoa power until well combined.  Heat the mixture over medium-low heat until simmering (do not boil!).  Slowly add the grated Mexican chocolate, whisking until the chocolate is melted.  Remove from the heat, add the tequila, and stir.  Serve in heat proof mugs.  Garnish each with a sprinkling of Mexican chocolate shavings.

Serves: 6 (4 for me – 2 for you)

If you do not want to use tequila (why wouldn’t you?) you could mix it up with bourbon, rum or brandy for a different flare.

Cheers!

Happy #smr (Sunday Morning Ritual)

Enjoy!

Welcome to the YOB Years!  Where all you need is a BIG Hug!
