Ingredients
8 orange candy slices8 cinnamon sticks (5 inches)8 pieces black shoestring licorice (10 inches)1/2 cup water1/3 cup red-hot candies6 cups milk3/4 cup instant chocolate drink mix
Preparation
For broomsticks, on a lightly sugared surface, roll each orange slice into a 1/4-in.-thick triangle. With wet scissors, snip bottoms of triangles to resemble broom bristles. Wrap pointed end of each around a cinnamon stick. Coil a licorice piece around the top of each orange slice to secure to cinnamon stick; set aside.
In a large saucepan, bring water and red-hots to a boil, stirring frequently until dissolved. Whisk in milk and chocolate drink mix. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat until hot. Pour into cups or mugs. Serve with broomstick stirrers.
