It would seem that for every Joe Bob special that airs on Shudder we create a pair of recipes. To be honest, we don’t mind either. In keeping with that tradition, we’ve come up with a drink that pairs really well with our Neon Vegan Christmas Cookies. After all, what goes better with cookies on a cold night than Boozy Vegan Hot Cocoa?! We certainly can’t think of anything!
The Christmas spirit takes over The Last Drive-In as Joe Bob and Darcy close out the year with a double feature of holiday horrors. Additionally, in the spirit of the holiday season, this Friday’s upcoming new The Last Drive-In Special, Joe Bob Saves Christmas, will feature unique memorabilia items available via online charity auction, Joe Bob Briggs announced in a video posted to his social media accounts. Check out the special for details of the items, charities and auction.
We are regularly asked by our readers as well as members of the Mutant Family to create vegan recipes for The Last Drive-In episodes and specials. Taking that to heart, we have come up with something tasty for Joe Bob Saves Christmas. It needed pair well with our cookies, so we went with hot cocoa. Fortunately for us, Swiss Miss has released an easy, dairy-free hot cocoa. Dandies makes vegan marshmallows, which gives us all of the elements needed for good cocoa. You can purchase both items on Amazon. If you aren’t vegan, you can simply swap out your favorites. Add a bit of Ancho Reyes and you’re good to go!
