THRIVE Gourmet Hot Cocoa

We have officially had our first frost here in Western Washington.  (And actually, we've probably had 4 or 5 days at or below freezing!)  I have heard tell that this has been true for pretty much all of the United States -- I know Alabama has had quite the unseasonable cold snap, of below freezing weather!  And that kind of cold weather just puts me in the mood for some chocolatey goodness -- some hot chocolatey goodness!

So last night, we opened up our THRIVE Gourmet Hot Cocoa, and we indulged!  Oh my goodness was this ever rich and creamy!  (Honestly, I think it was a little too rich when made according to package directions...  So I'm cutting back on the hot chocolate mix in the future -- still delicious and makes it last even longer :)).

This really is a lovely hot chocolate.  It has amazing flavor, and if you really like your hot chocolate to be rich, then by all means -- prepare it according to THRIVE Life's directions:

2 1/2 tablespoons THRIVE Gourmet Hot Cocoa
3/4 cup hot water

Put THRIVE Gourmet Hot Cocoa into a mug; add hot water.  Stir and enjoy!

If, on the other hand, you enjoy your hot chocolate a little less rich (but still delicious!), I recommend 1 1/2 tablespoons to 3/4 cup hot water.  I actually doubled the recipe this morning... :). 

And because it's chilly....  I'll probably be having another mugful later this evening.  Yum!

THRIVE Gourmet Hot Cocoa has a shelf life of 5 years unopened (1 year opened), so it's a great addition to your home store!
