This chocolatey Camping Cocoa with Vodka is light and refreshing. It is the perfect camping treat!
When I go camping I usually either forget something or I run out of something. During my recent camping trip to Colorado I had a bottle of vodka that I was drinking with pineapple orange juice. As usual, I ran out of something – the juice.
Being at my campsite and not close to civilization, I perused the kitchen box to see what else I could mix with my vodka. This Camping Cocoa with Vodka was the result.
You could use cacao powder, cocoa powder, or a cocoa mix as well, and adjust the sugar as needed. I always buy unsweetened almond milk, so I added sugar to make this cocktail sweeter. You could drink this hot or cold.
When I go on a road trip I like to pack food in mason jars, because they are more secure than reusable plastic containers. I took advantage of having an empty jar, and made a sun tea.
On this same trip I also made a Camping Sangria, which was made in a mason jar as well.
