Peppermint Hot Chocolate, Sugar-Free & Keto

What better way to wake up on Christmas day than with a mug of Keto Peppermint hot chocolate. My cocoa mix recipe is great to have on hand and then customize it based on the occasion. This season I'm finding that peppermint has my heart (and my kids'). 

The easiest way to make peppermint hot chocolate is to use my Keto hot chocolate mix and add a drop of pure, peppermint essential oil to your batch. I recommend Young Living's brand of essential oils based on their high standards or purity and seed to seal guarantee. They are also the only essential oil brand recognized by the FDA with a whole line of consumable essential oils. You can read more about their company here. (Note that in order to purchase from Young Living you will need to be a member. You DO NOT need to make regular purchases unless you want to. We love Young Living for their efficacy and commitment to non-toxic oils and products. Contact me for more information or join here). If you do not have essential oils you can use peppermint extract, though you will need to explore on the amount you need.

This recipe is so easy and such an simple way to get into the holiday spirit. Enjoy!

Makes:
2 cups of hot chocolate

Ingredients:
16 oz hot water
4 tablespoons TKF Hot Cocoa Mix
1 drop Peppermint Essential Oil**
2 teaspoon stevia (optional)
Garnish: Sugar-free peppermint candies, white chocolate chips, whipped cream (optional)
 
Directions:

1. Warm your hot water. I like to use the tea kettle.
2. Pour your hot water over your mix and stir vigorously. The hotter the water, the more easily the mix will dissolve.
3. Add your drop of Peppermint Essential Oil.
   PLEASE NOTE: Not all essential oil brands are created equally. Young Living is the only essential oil company with an FDA approved line of CONSUMABLE essential oil. Please DO NOT cook or consume essential oils unless they are from Young Living or if you've verified its purity.
4. Garnish with some smashed sugar-free peppermint candies, white chocolate chops and keto whipped cream. Enjoy!
