This boozy Frozen Mocha Hot Chocolate is pure delight! This recipe is in collaboration with Saint Brendan’s® Irish Cream, and the moment I first tasted it, I knew it was the perfect *secret ingredient* to a knockout cocktail. I topped the mixed drink with some booze infused whipped cream (also featuring their stellar product) and finished with a dusting of cocoa powder. And YUM! Since Saint Brendan’s® is a rich, indulgent anytime treat that’s a delightful blend of dairy cream, triple-distilled The Quiet Man® Irish Whiskey, and other spirits, it is definitely a “treat yo-self” kind of drink.

Not even gonna lie, I called up my friends and family on the spot to plan brunch because I knew I had to share this recipe ASAP! That said, I hope you give it a try because I would love to hear your thoughts on this too! In the meantime, please scroll onwards for the recipe.

“Our unique blend is crafted for a taste that’s elegantly smooth, gentle, and creamy. You’ll enjoy notes of vanilla, marshmallow, chocolate, and a touch of spice.” – Saint Brendan’s® Irish Cream
