Description
“Hygge” refers to a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture). How to hygge is as personal as you are, and I like to add this hot cocoa to my own hygge experience. Lavender, orange, chocolate, whipped cream, brandy … and a bubble bath doesn’t hurt, either. Let it snow!
Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons Homemade Hot Cocoa Mix
- 1 cup Hot Milk, Hot Water, Or A Combination Of Both (I Prefer Whole Milk)
- 2 Tablespoons Brandy
- 2 drops Orange Essential Oil
- 1 drop Lavender Essential Oil
- Whipped Cream For Topping (optional)
- Chai Latte Powder, For Sprinkling
Preparation
Add 4-5 tablespoons homemade hot cocoa mix to a heat-proof mug. Add steaming water, milk, or a combination of water and milk (I only use hot whole milk at night as it makes me drowsy!). Whisk until all of the powder is dissolved.
Add brandy and whisk, then add essential oils and whisk again. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of chai tea latte powder.
Bring your Orange and Lavender Hot Cocoa to the bubble bath and relax!
