There is nothing better than hot chocolate with an irresistible aroma and taste on cold December days. We all need the little things that give meaning and comfort to our everyday lives. That's why today we have prepared not one, but two delicious hot chocolate recipes for you.

The first recipe is for dark hot chocolate with an intense cocoa flavor, which we will prepare with Dragon Superfoods' sugar-free chocolate drops. For the second recipe, we will use Dragon Superfoods' pink chocolate drops, which will turn our hot chocolate into a drink with a fruity strawberry flavor and aroma.

Explore all the flavors of our chocolate drops.

Let's not waste any more time and start preparing these irresistible hot drinks, suitable for both young and old. Here's what we need to make dark hot chocolate:

Ingredients:

300 ml fresh milk
50 g Dragon Superfoods sugar-free chocolate drops
60 g Dragon Superfoods cocoa powder
30 g cornstarch
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 vanilla bean

Preparation:
Melt the chocolate drops in a double boiler. They have an intense cocoa flavor and a slight sweetness. They contain no animal products, meaning they are entirely vegan. Let's move on to the other ingredients.

Add the cornstarch, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and the inside of the vanilla bean to the cold milk. Stir well so that no lumps remain. Heat the mixture until it starts to boil.

Then add the melted chocolate drops and stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens. That's all.

We hope you will have many family occasions to make hot chocolate for your loved ones.

It's time to introduce you to the pink hot chocolate recipe and a small sweet bonus of tempting chocolate desserts made from vegan pink chocolate.

Pink hot chocolate – sounds divine! We will make it with our little secret: Dragon Superfoods pink chocolate drops. They are vegan, free of artificial colors, and get their pink color from organic strawberry powder. We guarantee a tempting fruity taste! They are sweetened with unrefined sugar.

With them, today we will make both hot chocolate and a delicious chocolate dessert. Let's not waste another minute, let's begin:

Ingredients:

150 g Dragon Superfoods pink chocolate drops
200 g fresh milk (plant-based milk can also be used)
2 tbsp Dragon Superfoods cocoa powder
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation:

First, dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tbsp of cold milk.

Meanwhile, heat the remaining fresh milk, and once it's warm, add the other tablespoon of cornstarch. Stir and add the cocoa and vanilla extract. Stir well again, and finally, add the pink chocolate drops. It will take a few seconds, up to a minute, for them to melt completely. That's all for making the hot pink chocolate.

To make the impressive sweet treats in the shape of a gingerbread man and a Christmas tree, you'll need those cookie cutters. You can also use other shapes if you have them available.

Everything else is very easy.

Melt about 50 grams of the pink drops in a double boiler, then sprinkle with a mixture of dried raspberries and place in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes. When the chocolate cools, remove the shapes and enjoy them in combination with the delicious pink hot chocolate we made.
