It's getting cold outside, and the holidays are almost here. But it's also one of our favorite times of the year ­– hot chocolate season! Our new Portable Camp Stove / Stand Combo is the perfect outdoor cooking tool to make hot chocolate and cook with on your deck/patio/balcony, backyard, campground, beach, and almost anywhere you travel. So, we created a special boozy/spiked hot chocolate drink recipe to celebrate the season, including ingredients from two other notable American companies, McCormick & Company, Inc. and Suerte Tequila.

This Spiked Mexican S'mores Flavored Hot Chocolate with Tequila drink will knock everyone's socks off while creating a unique activity and holiday memories to last a lifetime. And it uses our new camp stove!
