Red Wine Hot Chocolate The Winter Comfort Drink

 

Red wine hot chocolate is the ultimate comfort drink in the winter, and it’s easy to make.

Many people will tell you that the best way to de-stress is with a glass of red wine. Plus red wine offers a lot of health perks, like helping you to stay slim and keeping your heart healthy. On the other hand chocolate is more of a mental medicine. Women crave it and men hoard it like gold and it feels so good when it melts in your mouth. Now imagine combining these two elements together to create the ultimate self-indulgent treat ever to hit your taste buds. You can finally wind down to the best of both worlds and let it take you towards an ultimate state of bliss.

Prepare yourself for the ultimate combo of taste and perfection.

Never has a red wine hot chocolate drink sounded so um, um good. With winter practically on our doorstep, it’s a great treat to warm your bones and comfort your mind as you binge watch on Netflix.

Making it is easier than baking an apple pie.

All you need is to add 1 ½ cups of milk and 1/3 cup of dark chocolate chips into a saucepan and stir it over medium heat until the mixture is fully blended, thick and creamy.

Then add the other main ingredient.

Add a cup of red wine and stir it. We recommend a Cabernet Sauvignon as it’s smoother.

You’re almost done. You just need to pour it into a mug and add a little something to it.

You can garnish it with whipped cream or marshmallows.

With the holidays coming up, you can add something with a real kick to it too.

Cinnamon sticks come to mind as they’ll give your hot drink some extra spice.
