Brrr ~ it's cold outside! This month lets all share our favorite warm/hot drink and chat awhile...

Whether it be coffee, cider, cocoa, tea or other ~ please share your favorite recipe or mix.

2 of our fave for get togethers are posted in the crock pot section.....1 for cider and 1 for punch......another quickie tip for holiday coffee.....is put about 1/4-1/3 cup of caramel ice cream topping in your coffee pot and then brew as normal....yummy!!!

(you put the topping in the glass carafe part...let the hot coffee pour on top as it brews then just swirl pot...great,and quick for unexpected guests )

I am sorry I don't have anything for this.I don't make any kind of warm drink except for Hot Cocoa for the kids and that is packets and put a few mini marshmallows on top.

I will be watching to get some ideas from everyone else.

I like to add cinnamon to coffee grounds when brewing. Yummy! But I can't wait to read what everyone else is drinking.
