Peppermint Hot Chocolate

With a couple more months of winter before us and cold days ahead, warm and cozy drinks are on the menu. Peppermint hot chocolate elevates a classic with a minty addition.

Chocolate is melted into warm milk creating a rich and comforting drink. For a richer hot chocolate, replace half the milk with heavy cream. Serve with a cloud of whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
