Today is the day of love and whether you're going out on date night, staying in and eating pizza (YES) or hanging out with the girls, you NEED to end the night with this boozy cherry hot chocolate.

Toast to your relationship or toast to being the most bangin' single gal around, either way this drink is the perfect nightcap.

Ingredients:

  • 2 measures of vodka per cup
  • splash of cherry juice
  • hot chocolate mix
  • whipped cream
  • cherries for decoration

Method:

1. Prepare your hot chocolate mix as usual.

2. When slightly cooled, add in vodka and cherry juice. Stir well.

3. Dollop with whipped cream and cherries, and serve.

Simple! And maybe you can use the whipped cream for something else later… (wink wink).

We are in support of pretty much anything festive these days. November is a month filled with the promise of tinsel, giant Christmas trees and matching jumpers for the whole family (including Rover the puppy). 

We cannot wait to see what happens when December arrives. 

However, a certain lunch item that is claiming to be exactly what we would expect when it comes to festive desserts has sent the internet into meltdown.

Tesco is selling an Everyday Value Chocolate and Cherry Mascarpone Christmas sandwich on cinnamon bread and no one seems to be able to deal with this news.

A picture of the new meal deal item was shared on Sh*t London’s Facebook page by Londoner Nic Branch who captioned the image: ‘More gold at Tesco’. Since then people have been taking serious issue with the sandwich. 

‘Chocolate and cherry sandwiches? Has the world gone mad?’ asked Jane Craigie-Payne.

 

Others legitimately questioned the cherry content. Tesco seemed to be able to have a laugh about all the fuss:

Luckily, Metro were able to speak with someone who had actually tried the interesting foodie concoction. Seb Budd explained:

“The first few bites were actually OK. The cinnamon bread was a nice touch but after a few more mouthfuls I soon began to realise that this is the sort of sandwich you’d buy to tell someone you really don’t like them.”

Oh?

Seb must not be a mascarpone fan then, but we feel like this might be something that we need to taste-test for ourselves to be absolutely certain.
