There’s nothing quite like wrapping your hands around a warm mug of hot chocolate. It’s comforting, nostalgic, and indulgent all at once. Add Sheridan’s Coffee Layered Liqueur, and this cosy classic becomes extraordinary — the rich coffee layer deepens the chocolate, while the smooth cream adds a velvety finish that feels like pure luxury.
Perfect for chilly nights, Thanksgiving indulgence, or a sweet Christmas treat, Sheridan’s Hot Chocolate is comfort with a grown-up twist.

Tips for the Perfect Sheridan’s Hot Chocolate
