Peppermint Hot Chocolate

This is a simple but really yummy Christmas time treat!

1 packet Swiss Miss hot chocolate (or whatever kind you like)
hot water
Peppermint coffee creamer

Make your hot chocolate according to directions. Add about 1 tbsp peppermint creamer and stir. YUM!

I still want to try this with Gingerbread creamer as well :-)

My new found love...

is the Peppermint Mocha Twist from Starbucks. I wasn't so sure about this one at first, since I don't care for the coffee taste so much, and mocha tends to be kind of strong, but I had to try it because I LOVE peppermint. And I LOVE it! It almost tastes like hot chocolate with peppermint, only with a hint of coffee. Topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, this is a very yummy Christmasy treat! You should try it!

However, I was bummed at the realization that the Starbucks Holiday cups lack the "The Way I See It" quotations. Am I the only one that did not realize this?
