How to Make Spiced Cocoa

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
  2. Add the vanilla extract and milk powder and mix thoroughly until no lumps remain.
  3. Transfer the mixture to an airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 weeks.
  4. To prepare a serving of Spiced Cocoa, combine 1-2 tablespoons of the mix with 1 cup of hot milk. Whisk vigorously until smooth and creamy. For iced cocoa, mix the same amount of mix with 1 cup of cold milk and add ice.
  5. Garnish with whipped cream, marshmallows, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra special touch.
