The holiday season, and this month, in particular, bring with it so many TREATS everywhere we go!  Christmas cookies, gingerbread houses, eggnog, hot chocolate, peppermint everything!  If peppermint, chocolate, and coffee together is wrong, I don’t want to be right! Take a break from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season with this quick Peppermint Mocha recipe.

Peppermint Mocha

1 cup coffee to taste
1 packet of your favorite hot chocolate
1 tbsp. peppermint syrup (store bought)
1 to 2 oz. milk
Whipped cream
Crushed candy cane

Pour coffee in your favorite mug, and then slowly add hot chocolate while stirring. When mixing the hot chocolate be sure to dissolve the mixture thoroughly. Add peppermint syrup and stir again. You can add more syrup, according to your preference. Add just a splash of milk, then top with whipped cream and crushed candy canes.  For a fancier version used frothed milk & decorate scenes with our easy to use Shaker with froth molds. For an even sweeter surprise, add a limited edition Dark Chocolate Peppermint Stirrer.
