This hot apple cider is the perfect beverage for a cold winter night. I was served this drink at a cooking class and thought it would be great after a holiday meal. It is rich, delicious, and has a slight spiciness and aroma from the cinnamon and vanilla.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas and enjoying their time with family and close friends. Merry Christmas!
While we were in Germany four summers ago my family ordered hot chocolate. Instead of traditional hot chocolate, they brought us steamed milk with milk chocolate, white chocolate, and semi sweet chocolate chips on the side. They told us that we could melt the chocolate into the milk and make it to our own taste. I thought this was a great idea and decided to recreate this when I got home. This would be a great treat to serve after a heavy holiday meal or even at a Christmas tea.
One of my favourite drinks in the world is a Chai Tea Latte. I love the spicy aroma, creamy milk, and the sweetness from the honey and sugar. This recipe for Spicy Chai Tea turned out amazing. It is the perfect balance of spiciness and sweetness. I have tried out other recipes and this is by far my favourite. If you to are a Chai Tea Latte fan like me give this a try; it would go great with a cinnamon biscotti or even a slice of spicy coffee cake.
During the Christmas Season I like to make my chai lattes with eggnog instead of milk for a festive change.
