If a hot chocolate just isn’t strong enough for you, why not try an ovaltini? Inspired by a recent post on Bay Area Bites for Ovaltine Ice Cream (yum!), I thought an Ovaltine cocktail would be a great addition to a NYE party. The malt-chocolate taste of the powder mix will bring back childhood memories, and if anything it will be a conversation starter.

When I was a kid, I loved myself some Ovaltine. I preferred it mixed in with warm milk. And when I was really jonesing for a chocolate fix, I would simply swallow spoonfuls of the stuff and let the granules slowly melt on my tongue.

I found an easy recipe for an Ovalitini at Super Cocktails, which contains Stoli Vanil Vodka, white Creme De Cacao and Ovaltine Cocoa.
