Loceaux Coceaux Recipe


With the weather getting cooler, it’s time to sit around the fire with family sipping hot chocolate. While the kids are enjoying the marshmallows in their cups, it’s time for you to make this perfect triple liquor adult hot chocolate called the Loceaux Coceaux made with a local Louisiana product, J.T. Meleck rice vodka.

Whether you’re looking specifically for a vodka hot chocolate recipe or just an alcoholic hot chocolate recipe made with any kind of alcohol, our recipe made with two liqueurs and our very own J.T. Meleck Vodka embodies the definition of a cocktail that is dangerously smooth. The recipe calls for chocolate chips and cocoa powder meaning this recipe is the real deal; no shortcuts here!

We decided to make our spiked hot chocolate in a slow cooker so that it would keep warm and serve many, but do be aware that this recipe is so good that it’s going to go quick!

Best of all, this recipe ended up being one of the easiest we’ve ever made! The hardest part is remembering to stir often to avoid burning the chocolate chips!
