Hot Chocolate. Candy cane cocoa, Mexican hot chocolate, white chocolate, and old-fashioned hot chocolate. Winter's worth it if it means warming up with hot chocolate. In terms of dairy, hot chocolate recipes tend to call for thicker forms of dairy such as half-and-half, heavy cream, or whole milk.
Feel free to use an extract such as vanilla or anise to flavor the whipped cream.
Once dolloped onto your drink a small sprinkling of nuts, cocoa powder, or ground spices is a great way to add flavor and pump up.

I've tried several versions of hot chocolate. I've made it using regular cocoa powder, chocolate, chocolate chips and dutch cocoa powder. Dutch cocoa takes the cake in my opinion but the others come in a close second. Then I've used different milks (different percentages of fat, dairy and non-dairy).

Cooking hot chocolate in a slow cooker is great for large crowds, since the slow cooker will keep large quantities of hot chocolate warm all night. A homemade version is delicious and natural—containing only cocoa , sugar, and salt—and especially economical compared with store-bought mixes. A perfect treat for those hot summer days. The kids love it cause it's like Christmas in June, July, or August. To make it look even more like hot chocolate, serve with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
