As the days get shorter and the nights grow colder, a nice hot drink is the next best thing to hibernating under the covers till spring. Here are 50 drink recipes—with or sans alcohol—that offer a great alternative to the usual holiday libations and are destined to spice up any gathering. Caramel Apple Sips come complete with a gooey, caramely-covered stir stick. Or instead of dessert guests can sip into something a little more comfortable—Pumpkin Potion No. 9 topped with ginger whipped cream. Sugarplum Punch packs a good-to-the-last-drop wallop while a calming Chai Spiced Tea provides the perfect complement to a book and an overstuffed chair. With equipment and ingredient tips and super ideas for fabulous garnishes, when the weather outside is frightful, the sensational sippables in Some Like It Hot are oh-so-delightful.

Summary: Fun, Cute Little Book with Great Recipes
Comment: I bought this book for my daughter who is ALWAYS cold in the winter and loves Hot Chocolate and Hot Toddies and basically anything that's nice and warm! It's a very attractive, well-made book with fun photos and the recipes look delicious. I will give it to her on Christmas Eve so we can make a nice "Hot Drink" to enjoy! I paid $14.95 for it at a local shop.

Summary: YUMMMMY Hot Drinks!!!!
Comment: This book was chock-full of great hot drink recipes. We like to throw a holiday party every year and serve signature holiday drinks and this was the PERFECT book for such a task!! Not only were the recipes numerous, but they were also simple. The book is FULL of great pictures and the drinks are well-organized in their chapters. I would whole-heartedly recommend this book to ANYONE who loves delicious warm drinks when it's cold outside. You get your money's worth and then some... there are even recipes that are kid specific!! EXCELLENT CHOICE!!!

Summary: perfect for the upcoming cold-weather months!
Comment: I had eyed this book for quite some time before I purchased it, and I am so glad I did! The pictures of the drinks are so tempting and beautifully done that you are warmed up just by flipping through the book! Most of the recipes in this book are alcohol based, so don't pick this book up looking for lots of kid-friendly drinks (though there are definitely some that kids would enjoy, such as a s'mores hot chocolate). The recipes are all simple and there is a nice section on creating garnishes. Order this book and get ready to sit back and enjoy some tasty, piping hot drinks!

Summary: Fantastic drinks! Fantastic gift!
Comment: I haven't tried a drink that I didn't find absolutely yummy! Great holiday drink recipes. The "Gingerbread Men" is a warm and cozy coffee drink, the Praline Prancer tastes as good as it looks wit its sugar rim, and my other favorite is "Cookies and Cream"...realy warms you up! I'm making up a gift basket with the book, mugs/glasses, and ingredients for my special friends. It's a holiday must!

Summary: "Hot" drinks for the cool months!!!
Comment: Wow, what a cool little book filled with "HOT" drinks. I've always been able to find "cold" beverage recipe books that are mostly enjoyed during warm weather (or on a beach!), but not one that has warm drinks for the cooler months. It's a handy guide for making "festive" drinks for the fall and winter months but it also includes coffee and tea recipes that can be enjoyed year-round. It has recipes for one or for a group which is great for entertaining for the upcoming holidays. The recipes are easy to follow and your mouth will water just looking at the gorgeous pictures of these wonderful drinks! SO many recipes are packed in this small package, it would make a great gift for your favorite party hostess. And just in case this review still isn't helpful enough, let me just say two last words........CHOCOLATE MARTINI!!
