Oh the weather outside is frightful, but this hot chocolate is SO delightful! I don’t have a fireplace in my flat so these lyrics seem much more fitting. And this vegan hot chocolate truly deserves a song lyric because it’s so sensational!

This hot chocolate uses cocoa powder combined with cinnamon, maple syrup and soy milk, it is one to go down in history!

The flavour combos of this steaming cup of cocoa will have you feeling festive in minutes. I’ve topped mine with a swirl of whipped cream, because tis the season! 

But alas this hot chocolate recipe is a must try as we count down the days to Christmas, by a delightful fireplace or not, nothing will warm us up sooner than this steaming cuppa.

Happy holidays!
