Ingredients

  • 1 envelope hot cocoa mix I used Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa Mix
  • 1 envelope mini marshmallows equivalent to about 0.2 oz (If you use the hot cocoa mix that comes with the marshmallows inside it, you can just use that. Based on what kind of hot cocoa mix you have in your hand, you can use according to package directions)
  • 1 teaspoon instant coffee powder
  • 1 cup whole milk

Instructions

  • Add the hot cocoa mix powder to a coffee mug.
  • Also add the instant coffee powder to the coffee mug, mix well the hot cocoa and coffee powder so they are mixed evenly.
  • Heat the milk on stove top using a sauce pan or heat the milk in microwave using a good microwave safe mug or cup.
    If using microwave, you can heat the milk for about 1 minute and 30 seconds (make sure to use a large mug or cup to heat the milk so the milk won't overboil).
  • Once the milk is heated, immediately pour the hot milk over the hot cocoa & coffee powder mix in the coffee mug.
  • Mix well to combine. Top with marshamallows (that comes with the hot cocoa mix) and gently stir in, serve hot & enjoy!

Notes

Make sure to use hot milk and also mix the mixture immediately once the hot milk is added to the coffee mug, so the hot cocoa mix and coffee will blend in with the milk without forming any lumps.
If the milk is not hot enough or if you don't mix them soon, there could be some lumps forming which you can break easily using spoon.
