If you're a fan of spicy-sweet, make this Mexican Hot Chocolate Mocha that gets a kick from adding in our cinnamon and cayenne. Note: Any type of milk can be used (low-fat, whole, almond, coconut, oat, soy, etc.) and you can add more or less seasoning to suite your taste. You can also use a pre-made cocoa mix with any of our cocoa flavor hacks.
