Preparation

Step 1

If you're making the cocoa to take with you for an outdoor get-together, prepare it the morning of the event, then store and serve it out of an insulated container.

The morning before the outdoor event:

Mix milk, half-and-half, sugar, finely chopped chocolate and brown sugar together in a small saucepan over medium heat. Do not bring to a boil, but allow chocolate and sugar to melt and dissolve until they get hot. Reduce heat. Place half of this mixture into a blender and mix to a frothy consistency. Pour this back into your pan and stir in the vanilla extract.

At the outdoor party site:

Fill your partygoers' cups with 2 ounces of rum, silver tequila or Kahlua. Pour in hot chocolate from a thermos or jug. Stir with a cinnamon stick.
