Discover Your Winter Cocktail & $20 Crate & Barrel G/C Giveaway – (2/20)

by Marcie on February 3, 2012

In most parts of the country it still looks and feels like winter. Although we don’t get snow here in Las Vegas, we do have very frequent windy days all year around. When those winds come from the North you just know it’s going to be a cold day. A wonderful way for us adults to keep warm inside and out during this time is with a yummy cocktail!

The folks from Robb Report are helping us feel nice and toasty with their Discover Your Winter Cocktail App. This includes a fun discover your cocktail quiz, little known liquor facts, and some tasty seasonal cocktail recipes. I have decided to share my favorite below!

Chocolate Snowball
Ingredients
2 oz coconut rum
2 oz  Irish cream
1 oz hazelnut liqueur
3 1/2 oz melted chocolate
3 1/2 oz cream
1 dash chocolate syrup

Preparation

Place the chocolate syrup around the glass then place the other ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice and shake. Strain into glass.

To celebrate the  Discover Your Winter Cocktail Blog App I have a prize pack up for grabs that includes a Hendrick’s Gin Golf Umbrella and a $20 g/c to Crate and Barrel
This is a short contest so enter fast and often!
