As you know, I’m a huge fan of coffee. However at this time of year I personally this that a hot chlorate tastes far better than it does at any other time of the year…… Christmas Fact. I think at Christmas you can justify adding a huge amount of squirty cream and sprinkles to the top of your hot chocolate. It is also a simple, affordable and accessible activity for most people to enjoy. The activity can be adapted to be a milkshake instead of a hot chocolate, it can be drunk through a straw, thickener can be added to achieve a good consistency for an individual, the list is endless. But at its core it is a social activity to be enjoyed by all.

ENJOY!

I believe these are the essentials for a perfect Christmas Hot Chocolate:

• 1x festive mug

• 1x festive spoon

• 1x festive napkin

• 4tsp instant hot chocolate

• A good glug of milk

• Hot water (not boiling)

• A generous helping of squirty cream

• Festive sprinkles

All you have to do is:

1. Boil some water in the kettle. Whilst you’re preparing the drink it will cool slightly.

2. Add the instant hot chocolate to the festive mug.

3. Add the milk to the festive mug and stir with the festive spoon.

4. Pour the water from the kettle into the festive mug and stir with the festive spoon.

5. Add squirty cream.

6. Add sprinkles.

7. Place the festive mug on the festive napkin and enjoy. The festive spoon can be used to make sure you get all the cream ;-)
