With cooler weather coming upon us, the kids have been hankering a fall weather beverage. A nice hot cup of hot chocolate sounded good. This time we made a mint hot chocolate.
I simply place the peppermint leaves into my tea infuser, then pour boiling water in it. Close the top, and steep about 3-4 minutes. You can use fresh or dried leaves.
While it's steeping, I put my hot chocolate mix in a mug that fits the infuser's bottom.
Place the infuser over the mug, and drain the mint water into the mug, making it mint hot chocolate.
Yum! One of the kids asked for mint hot cocoa last winter, and we had zero peppermint. You could also steep a cup with peppermint tea from the store, and add the chocolate mix after that.
Enjoy!
