on Jan 19, 2021, Updated Feb 22, 2024 Turn your milk green with these delicious green hot cocoa bombs for St. Patrick’s Day or even Christmas! We love hot chocolate and turning it green is a super fun way to enjoy holidays with the kids. If you’re looking for something a little more savory, you’ll love our green bagel recipe! Hot Chocolate bombs make a great activity with kids and if you want to go all out, make these fun St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun hats to wear while you make them! Kids will love helping assemble the hot cocoa and marshmallows, get the melted candy just right, and the best part, turning milk green! If you’re looking for something a little cooler, try our Shamrock Shake with (or without) alcohol.
