The week between Christmas and New Years is the land of no rules. Want to stay in your PJs all day? Do it! Feel like curling up on the couch under a cozy blanket and reading or binging Netflix? Go for it! Want to have a constant mug of hot chocolate? I’m here for it! Lucky for you, I concocted a healthy version of your favorite cold weather beverage for guilt free sipping. Feel free to play with the quantities to achieve your desired flavor.
Ingredients
- 1.5 c oat milk (I like Califia Farms)
- 2 tbs cacao powder
- 1-2 tsp agave
- ½ tsp peppermint extract (option to exclude this for traditional hot chocolate!)
Directions
- Add all ingredients to the blender and blend. Pour into a mug and microwave or pour into a saucepan and heat over medium heat.
- Once you reach your desired temperature, pour into a mug and enjoy.
- Bonus- if you want to elevate your hot beverage, pour it into a frothing cup after heating and froth the oat milk before enjoying!
