Peppermint Hot Chocolate

The Recipages feature in our Fall 2014 issue celebrates everything the winter season brings: warm roasts, snuggly soups… But just because it offers up tried-and-true classics doesn’t mean they have to be boring.

It’s hot chocolate season again! Warm up and cool down with this perfect peppermint twist on one of Santa’s favorites.
