Whenever I'm out it is always a toss up between hot chocolate and peppermint tea.
So when it was my turn to share what I'd ordered I confessed this all to my friends.
Then I heard the most glorious sentence:
"You should try putting them together."
What?! Do my ears deceive me?
"Put the two together?" I excitedly asked.
"Ya" she said "All you have to do is make your hot chocolate and add a peppermint tea bag. It makes the most delicious Mint Hot Chocolate."
Pure genius, I tell you, PURE GENIUS! Why haven't I ever thought of this before??
I was more than excited to try this little trick at home, so the next day I made up a batch of Hot Chocolate using this recipe which, by the way, IS THE BEST RECIPE for hot chocolate EVER and added my tea bag.
( you can also cheat and use an instant package, like I did today because I was too lazy to make the good stuff....it's good too, but not as good as Sarah's recipe!)
Oh my WORD!
It is the true, lasting kind of love that will never fade.
I can't even explain it... you must go and make yourself a mug right now!
Especially if, like me, you are still looking outside at the over-abundance of snow and crying over the forecast that is promising another 10-30 centimeters of snow overnight.
I promise, this drink will make you feel better :)
wow - does that ever look good. I'll have to give it a try. we gave tea as our wedding favors... one flavor was peppermint, and we have TONS left :)

ReplyDeletePURE GENIUS, indeed!! I'm just like you too: Why didn't I think of that? Sometimes the best ideas are the simplest. I know it's going to become a new favorite. Thanks!
