Baileys Festive Hot Chocolate

Baileys and Christmas go together like Me and Seasonal Excess ( I've never really been a one glass of wine type of person) So when Baileys said they were going to be serving toasted marshmallows with their signature drinks this Christmas- well, I just had to rock up with a few suggestions of my own. As part of the Baileys Treat Collective I've whipped up one hell of a festive treat- A rich Parisian style hot chocolate finished with a toasted Baileys marshmallow bejewelled with dried figs, pistachio nibs and a glint of gold.

Outdoor Toasting Experience

It’s dusky, cold enough to see your breath and you’re strolling through a stunning landscape you wouldn't normally be allowed in. Not at night. But for 6 weeks it’s backlit, uplit, strung with lanterns and sparkling flashes. An arresting soundscape and neon projections envelope the darker corners. Sounds magical right? Well, that's how we like to do Christmas. We’re back at some of the UK’s most beautiful attractions with our Toasting Marshmallow Experience and we can’t wait.

Baileys Bonfire S'mores

 If you need me you'll find me over here, brimming with excitement that I’m now part of the Bailey’s Treat Collective. Baileys have a knack for creating the most decadent of desserts whipped, drizzled and just oozing with Irish cream. Have a little peek at their enviable Instagram page to really get you reaching for the bottle. If you haven’t tried Baileys in anything other then a glass then let me and the rest of the Treat Collective lure you in. From punchy coldbrew coffees and delicate patisserie to my showstopping s’more.

The Perfect Hot Chocolate

A mug is just a mug, right? A vessel for hot drinks, we have mismatched ones, chipped one, maybe we have a favourite one. But, essentially, they’re all pretty much the same. Well, no. That’s not right at all. The mug you choose affects everything about your drink, how it tastes, how it feels, and the whole experience. So this year I wanted to find the perfect hot chocolate mug and WOAH did I stumble down a rabbit hole of pintrest, instagram design blog blurriness.

Indian Summers + Golden Luxe

I was in the supermarket this week when a mum turned around to snap at her child: “Ryan, I’ve told you, summer’s over now”. And wow, it hurt. I realised she was right. Im in the supermarket, summer is definitely over and no amount of hanging out by the new pencil cases or crisp, unpeeled A4 pads is going to make me feel better about it. So, here you find me trying to eek out ways to keep the last days from slipping away.
