We're getting warm just looking at it. | Elsie Hui

Usually we go straight for the booze when we want to warm up, but sometimes you just need to satisfy that sweet tooth. It's the perfect time for hot chocolate, and there are much better offerings around the city than Swiss Miss with fake marshmallows.

Baileys' Chocolate Bar (1915 Park Avenue; 314-241-8100)

This one is a no-brainer. Baileys' Chocolate Bar has four hot chocolates to choose from: white, semi-sweet, dark and rich, or smokey, spicy and rich, which has chipotle and pepita. You can also add espresso, Baileys, Irish whiskey or raspberry liqueur. There are chocolate martinis, too, of course, and you can get those hot -- so we're counting that as hot chocolate. There's milk chocolate, dark, very dark, sexual (spicy), nutty (hazlenut), raspberry, coconut and Mexican (strong).
