Winter’s not going away anytime soon, it would appear. This Fiery Hot Chocolate from SIDECUT Modern Steak + Bar at the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler will take the chill away, whether you’ve taken advantage of the cool temps to hit the mountains or you simply froze your tail off walking home from work.

“Bringing heat to the Green Chartreuse and Coconut Tequila with the hot chocolate brings a fiery taste without added spice while the lavender bitters add a unique herbal twist,” says SIDECUT bartender Zak Nettelbeck.
