the sight smell and taste of chocolate is enough to raise anyone's spirits and the same is true with hot chocolate as soon as you wrap your hands around the mug you're instantly comforted but unless you make it yourself hot chocolate is not necessarily a healthy choice many brands contain additives you would do well to avoid making your own using pure cocoa is cheaper tastier healthier and easier all you have to do is stir the other benefit to making your

own is the choice of milk i'm using this simul fresh low-fat milk it's lactose free and perfect for anyone with a lactose sensitivity it tastes and performs just like regular milk and has the same nutritional benefits so add two cups to a pan and while the milk is heating take two teaspoons of cocoa and add that to a little jug now this bit is optional a teeny bit of chili powder now add the warm milk just a little bit at a

time and whisk it in and pour this back into the pan with just two teaspoons of sugar or you can use honey you don't need any more sweetness than that and just keep this for just another 30 seconds or so don't let it boil turn the heat off and that's it pour it into two mugs pop a cinnamon stick in each and they're ready to drink a scrumptious cup

of lactose free hot chocolate that everyone in the family will love enjoy it tonight
