Ingredients
  • 4 peppermint tea bags
  • 16 oz. boiling water
  • 2 tsp. cocoa
  • 2 Tbls. sweetener of choice (honey, raw sugar, etc.) or to taste
  • 8 oz. steamed milk (milk froths best when it's low in fat so I use 1% or a dairy alternative such a hemp milk)
Instructions
  1. Steep the tea bags in boiling water for 5 minutes.
  2. In a large measuring cup, combine the cocoa and sweetener with a little hot tea water to make a paste then slowly add the remaining water and stir well.
  3. Divide the tea between two large mugs.
  4. Carefully pour half the steamed milk and froth into one mug then top the second mug.
  5. Enjoy!
