Notes
Use whipped cream and candy canes to make this hot chocolate a little more indulgent, or you can just leave them out.
We used a mixture of skimmed milk and coconut milk, but you could use just skimmed milk to make this lower in calories.
Want to keep this vegan? Use almond milk and swap the honey for maple syrup.
