Hot chocolate isn\u2019t something I drink all that often. The stuff you get from the packet and add water to is always disappointing. It never tastes as good as the picture looks, and to be honest, if I\u2019m going to have a hot chocolate, I at least want it to be a good one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This version uses almond milk which is what makes it a dairy-free option. Almond milk is really creamy, so it\u2019s perfect to use as a base for a hot chocolate. Dark chocolate also keeps this hot chocolate dairy-free & vegan, and doesn\u2019t make it overly sweet. So you get to enjoy a rich, creamy hot chocolate, without it being too sickly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s definitely an indulgence, but who says indulging now and again is a bad thing? I promise you would never guess this was a vegan hot chocolate if no-one told you, so why not try it out next time you need a warm blankets and fluffy socks kind of afternoon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flavors included in the recipe below are classic peppermint, a rich and zesty orange flavor, and the most decadent Italian hot chocolate, topped with a pinch of flakey sea salt for extra punch.<\/p>\n\n\n
