Healthy Hot Chololate Alternative

(Starbucks Mug, Hersheys Cocoa, Williams Sonoma Whisk)



I have been going vegan/vegetarian  for almost a week now. No judgements because I have always been a meat lover but due to health reasons I need to change my diet. I gave up coffee, black teas, green tea only in the morning, no milk, no sugar, NO FUN.... I was needing a little pick me up this afternoon. Too late for green tea I was having a coffee craving for something sweet and chocolately. I opted to make my own concotion - enter Healthy Hot Cocoa!

Ingredients:

6 oz. Fresh Almond Milk

2 Spoonfuls of Hersheys Cocoa Powder

1-2 Spoonfuls of Xylitol Sweetener (Stevia is wonderful too- but use waaaayyy less)

Small Pan

Whisk

Mug

Chocolate Cravings

Directions:

1. Place pan on stove pour in ingredients. 

2. Heat on low for short amount of time - you don't want to kill the raw enzymes in your raw milk.

3. Whisk ingredients until well blended. Remove from heat. Pour into a mug and enjoy!  

*** You can always add in your favorite flavoring in the form of extract. Use peppermint for a peppermint hot chocolate or butterscotch, raspberry, butter rum extracts are all wonderful too!

It is no Nestles Cocoa with Marshmallows BUT it killed the sugar-chocolately craving that was nagging me since 3:30pm today. By no means is this the best choice but I consider this to be a healthy alternative to my normal peppermint mocha.

Starbuck Amazing-Ness and Giveaway!

I usually get an americano with cream at my favorite Starbucks on Main. That is my go-to for Starbucks. ALWAYS. I never branched out before until I was at thee TCC (The Creative Connection) event last month. With 15 + hours a day crafting and networking, I needed a pick-me-up. To my delight at our marketplace there was the Starbucks Booth in all of its glory (cue the singing birds and heavenly lights).

The wonderful Starbucks Team was there to greet us and to try the samples of their different coffee blends.

Have you ever tried the different blends before at Starbucks?!

Oh man- They are AWESOME!! With the holidays approaching fast, these will be the perfect gift!

Here is the breakdown for the different roasts:

Breakfast Blend:  Perfect for your morning cup. This blend is crisp and bright for a fresh start to your day.

House Blend: Best balanced blend. This medium roast has the classic Starbucks flavor. It makes a great gift!

   
 Italian Roast: Super dark medium roast. It is not as smokey as the French but has more caramel notes than the Espresso Roast.
    

French Roast: Very BOLD, full flavored roast. It has an intense smokey flavor. Pairs perfectly with any dessert.

                                                 *Learn more at www.starbucks.com/coffee/learn

These blends are like having a personalized coffee blend for your tired taste buds!

The wonderful team at the Starbucks booth gave all of us lucky gals at the show some AWESOME SWAG! Now it is your turn to get a HUGE Swag Gift of your own!

        One Lucky WINNER will receive a bag of each blend as wel as a Create-Your-Own Tumbler.
