Hot chocolate is wonderful on cold, snowy days. But doesn't it get old sometimes? There are days when I want the rich, chocolatey delightfulness of a cup of cocoa, but it just seems...boring. Here are some ways I change it up to make that mug of delight even more delightful:
Cinnamon--just a shake or two per serving. A cinnamon stick would work too. Sometimes, to this I will add nutmeg as well.
Peppermint--the best hot cocoa ever! Add one mint hard candy to the dry mix. It will gradually melt into the cocoa, diffusing its flavor throughout.
Coffee--there are two ways to do this. One way is to add instant coffee granules to the dry hot cocoa mix. The other is to use freshly-brewed coffee as the liquid.
Happy sipping! Do you have a favorite thing to add to hot cocoa?
