What's a good hot alcohol drink?

[kristie]

Do they exist? We are slipping into freezing temps for tonight. I am having a sort of open house where my friends can come hang out, trick or treat in the neighborhood, etc. our neighborhood turns into a block party. Should I make hot chocolate for everyone and let the adults spike theirs or kids get hot chocolate and I make some apple cider warm drink? I was going to make an apple sangria when the forecast was for warmer weather. Is there something better?

Apple cider, bourbon and a little maple syrup. yummy

I say hot chocolate for everyone, Baileys for the kids.

ETA- lol, I'm not even going to change that.

I'm going to try warm apple cider with caramel vodka this weekend. Seems like a good idea.

My go to is coffee with Bailey's or Rum Chata.

Mulled wine in a crockpot, easy peasy and so good.

I want this NOW. That sounds amazing. So many good suggestions on this thread! Sorry I don't have any of my own. As a Florida girl, I don't need warm drinks too often.

Hot Scotch!

Pour butterscotch schnapps (buttershots) into an 8 oz. mug and fill with hot chocolate. Garnish with whipped cream.

I like the hot chocolate or coffee with Bailey's or Rumchata. My friends BIL makes a kick ass coffee liquor, but he's in NYC.

[Waffles]

Mulled wine or Irish/French/Mexican/whatever coffee (whiskey/brandy/rum spiked).

I also like coffee or hot chocolate with Kahlua or Baileys but it can get sickly fast.

[kristie]

Okay, now I want all the drinks. Hmm.... I have to put my alcohol order in with DH soon. He is on his way home from work. Living in a dry county sucks.

[captainobvious]

I like to put a buttery nipple in coffee.

MOST of these sound wonderful.

But the thought of hot chocolate with tequila makes me shudder.

I've actually never had it but some of my coworkers were saying how good it was.

This is my go to drink when we're sitting by the campfire. I LUUUURVE it.

ETA: It even tastes better when playing Cards Against Humanity along side it.

[katb]

Ugh, I was debating this because that was going to go in my "Apple sangria". I was scared of hot vodka. I don't really know why... I told DH to get me lots of red wine blends for mulled wine and we are getting peppermint schnapps and baileys. You have to tell me how this turns out.

Lurker posting: Hot chocolate with vanilla vodka and baileys. My favorite.
