I don't like hot drinks but my DH wants me to buy some when I go grocery shopping.
How do you make it? Instant powder? Or do you just heat milk and add syrup?

i love it! i like swiss miss powder in warm milk 'cause it's what i grew up with, godiva and ghirardelli are both delish!
-
I used to show this to my kids. No idea if it's a good recipe though, but it looks gooooood!
-
Swiss Miss powder with the mini marshmallows with half water and half milk. Reminds me of my childhood
-
@autumnlove: You have to try Godiva's Chololixir, they also have it hot
-
I don't particularly love it, but don't drink coffee either so if we're doing some winter activity and I want a festive beverage to warm up with, I'll have one.
At home, I just buy actual Belgian chocolate, chop it up tiny and melt it in milk. Ideally with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream and an optional shot of Bailey's or Kahlua.

I love it but I don't like my hot chocolate very chocolate-ty.
Also, I make up some Nutella hot chocolate. Warm up some milk on the stove and add a spoonful of Nutella. YUM!
-
@bluestriped bee: I will have to try that since I forgot to buy the powder when I was out! Lol
-
Two words: Swiss Miss
-
Equal exchange makes the best! They use milk from our local coop! Worth every penny.
-
@autumnlove: LOL! I love Nutella hot chocolate! If you got Nutella and milk, you should definitely try it.

I don't like hot chocolate from a mix because it's too sweet, but I often do the following:
1. Mix ~3 heaping tsp sugar + ~2 heaping tsp unsweetened cocoa powder* (really, I eyeball the amounts, sorry for the imprecision!) in a mug
2. Add a bit of hot water and stir into a thin paste
3. Fill up the rest of the mug and stir thoroughly
4. Microwave for about 1.5-2 mins, until hot but not boiling
5. Enjoy!*Ghiradelli is a good brand

@autumnlove: Did you try the Nutella hot chocolate?
-
@bluestriped bee: not yet...DH is still sleeping!

Swiss miss. With lots of marshmallows!!

I looooove hot chocolate. This LO is making me crave it every night!
I buy the swiss miss marshmallow lovers and heat up milk and then mix it in.
