While growing up, my boys enjoyed helping me make this beverage with broomsticks. Now I use the recipe with my grandchildren. Ingredients:
8 orange candy slices |
8 cinnamon sticks (5 inches) |
8 pieces black shoestring licorice (10 inches) |
1/2 cup water |
1/3 cup red-hot candies |
6 cups milk |
3/4 cup instant chocolate drink mix |
Directions:
1. For broomsticks, on a lightly sugared surface, roll each orange slice into a 1/4-in.-thick triangle. With wet scissors, snip bottoms of triangles to resemble broom bristles. Wrap pointed end of each around a cinnamon stick. Coil a licorice piece around the top of each orange slice to secure to cinnamon stick; set aside.
2. In a large saucepan, bring water and red-hots to a boil, stirring frequently until dissolved. Whisk in milk and chocolate drink mix. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat until hot. Pour into cups or mugs. Serve with broomstick stirrers. Yield: 8 servings.
