Making it at home also allows you to use healthier ingredients like steel-cut oats instead of rolled oats, which are sometimes processed with added salt or sugar (and sometimes even artificial flavouring).

Hot chocolate is always classic and even more comforting on a chilly day. Whether you’re making it for yourself or others, electric kettles are the best way to get hot chocolate in under five minutes.

- Add water and cocoa powder to your electric kettle, then turn it on and wait for the water to heat up (usually three minutes). Once your kettle is heated up, please turn off the power and remove the pot from its base. If you want some froth on top of your drink, use an immersion blender to blend together some milk with sweetener (we recommend vanilla extract) until frothy; add this mixture back into your pot for extra flavour!
