THE STORY

Our cofounders Mark and Meagen have a toddler with a Christmas birthday. While he's little before he realizes what a grave injustice this is to his inventory of new toys and deserved birthday attention, his birthday party has been the one time of year that they gather family and friends for a big shindig. Last year, Meagen prepared a stellar platter of sweets with everything from peppermints to marshmallows to cookies. It was the perfect compliment to the mega-sized cheeseburger we cut into pieces like a cake. There's no party this year, but there is boozy hot cocoa with all the fun fixin's. All you need is the base of your favorite hot cocoa with the caramelized, cozy spiced notes of 504Bananas Foster. (Just take the booze out for the kids.) To treat yourself in 2020, go crazy with the fun stuff - marshmallows, peppermint, cookies, whipped cream, even caramels.
