As promised, this week I have the perfect Halloween drink for kids! Bloody hot chocolate – yum!
This is just a regular hot chocolate but it’s dyed red. It’s perfect for Halloween night, especially if it’s chilly whenever you are. Make this after trick-or-treating to warm up those kiddos. Not like they’ll need more sugar at that point but yeah… warmth!
It’s very simple to make and honestly? You could totally get away with using a packet of hot chocolate mix. Just make it on the stove and stir in some red food coloring right at the end.
Nicole made bloody punch! I hope y’all are enjoying our drink series! Much more to come in the next few months!

This reminds me of “Red Velvet cake” in Liquid form. Is there a recipe for a “Red Velvet cake” flavored drink? If not, you can add small chunks, or crumbs from a “Red Velvet cake” YUM!
