Cider Hot Chocolate is the best of both worlds! The perfect cold weather drink.
So which is your drink of preference? Hot Chocolate or Spiced Apple Cider? I always have a hard time deciding between the two but the good news is, I don’t have to choose any more and either do you!
Today’s recipe for Cider Hot Chocolate lets you have your cake and eat it too or rather have you hot chocolate and your spiced apple cider too, both at the same time!
Not only is this the perfect combination, it’s delicious and it’s easy to make. I started with some spiced apple cider I picked up at Trader Joes. If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s near you or can’t find spiced apple cider (not the same as apple cider) at your grocery store you can make your own spiced apple cider with this recipe. We love this recipe for spiced apple cider and make it all fall and winter long!
To the spiced apple I added vanilla, heavy whippiing cream and melted white chocolate. Use real white chocolate, you’re worth it! It makes a delicious creamy drink.
Pour it into your mug and then top it with some whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon
Celebrate fall with this delicious, creamy cider hot chocolate!

Hey, just want to make sure, but do we add in the rest of the ingredients while the cider is heated, or after the cider is heated? Thanks, and excited to try recipe!
Leigh Anne says
You heat the cider first and then add in the white chocolate and the liquid whipping cream. Stir until chocolate melts. Then pour into the glass and top with whipped cream and cinnamon.

Alright! Thanks!
