Alpine or Pine Tree (Hot Alcohol Beverage)

 In the Rocky Mountains they are called "Alpines" or as FIL calls them "Pine Trees" ( we have since decided if you add Fireball to your hot chocolate they are Pine Trees).
 
Alpines Recipe:1 coffee mug of hot water, add hot chocolate mix and 1 shot of peppermint schnapps (1/2 as much if you don't like it strong....this requires experimentation to your taste buds)


Pine Trees Recipe: 1 coffee mug of hot water, add hot chocolate mix and 1 shot of Fireball
 (1/2 as much if you don't like it strong....this requires experimentation to your taste buds)

This is a required drink here in the winter in our house!

Enjoy!
