Here are some of our favorites. Look for more later this week!

• Hot apple cider * Serve with a cinnamon stick, or make with mulling spices (often available from the bulk spice section of your health food store).
• Hot cocoa * Make it with a non-dairy milk (rice, soy, almond, oat, coconut). Or make it easy and heat up some chocolate Almond Breeze. It’s a member favorite.
• Soy eggnog * Soy Dream and Silk both make good eggnogs. Brandy or rum optional.
• Pumpkin smoothie * Make it with soy eggnog for extra richness; serve warm or cold.
• Mulled wine * Gently heat your favorite red wine with mulling spices.
• Coffee chai * Over medium-low heat, simmer 4 cups rice or soy milk, 1 Tablespoon instant decaf coffee, 1/8 cup Sucanat®, 3 cinnamon sticks, 6 cardamom pods, 1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, and 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice. Turn off the heat and let steep for 20-30 minutes. Strain through a clean sieve. Serve hot or cold, with cinnamon stick stirrers. Serves 4.
