Winter can be a cold and depressing time for many people. One way to ease your stress and warm up from the inside out is to make yourself a nice cocktail. The following boozy drinks are sure to keep you warm this winter.
Boozy Pumpkin White Hot Chocolate

Made with white chocolate chips and pumpkin puree, Bourbon Spiked Hot White Chocolate brings a new style to the old hot chocolate. Bourbon is added to the drink and then it can be topped with caramel and marshmallows. If you are not a bourbon drinker, you can substitute it for Kahlua or schnapps.
Kahlua Hot Chocolate

While you can simply mix hot chocolate mix with a shot (or two) of Kahlua, the recipe for homemade hot chocolate is easier than you may think. All you need is to mix milk, chocolate, vanilla, brown sugar, and salt in a saucepan until it is hot. Add some Kahlua, then top with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, or marshmallows.
