Whenever we are out and about running errands, I’ll often swing by a coffee shop to grab my staple – a piping hot black Americano. I absolutely love my coffee, but I get so sad when it’s freezing out (sub-zero temps are often the norm up here in the winter) and the girls can’t enjoy something warm to drink and wrap their little cold hands around, too. Coffee shops don’t normally cater to gluten-free, {cow’s milk} dairy-free and soy-free patrons. I created this Hot Chocolate Mix with Powdered Goat Milk, so when we are out running around, I can make my girl’s a cup of hot chocolate anywhere; I keep some of it in my purse. I only need a cup, hot water, and a stirring stick to make it, which all coffee shops are happy to provide (with or without a small fee). ๐
This mix would also be a lovely Christmas gift for the cow’s milk dairy-free individual in your life. Can you believe there’s only 8 more Fridays left until Christmas?! Crazy! Have you already started your Christmas shopping?
All my love,
Megan
Goat's milk isn't for everyone. If you don't enjoy goat's milk, you will not like this mix. For an even richer cup of hot chocolate, combine this mix with your favorite dairy-free milk, instead of water.

Looks great, Megan! Beautiful pic too. Guess when in Alaska, you’ve gotta figure out ways to keep warm! ๐

Oh Megan, this is brilliant in it’s simplicity! And hot chocolate and marshmallows go together like a kiss and a little squeeze. ๐ This is something I will definitely try right along with the marshmallows. The only thing I would add is powdered vanilla because we like vanilla, and we have the cocoa/caffeine issue and would need to substitute carob.
You do such a good job of thinking inside and outside of the box and I/we are able to benefit. That is such a gift!
Hugs,

What a great treat for your girls! Hot cocoa (what I like to call it) is one of my most favorite things in the world and has been since I was a little girl, so I’m glad they get to have that experience. ๐ I’ve not tried powdered goat milk yet. Love the photos! I have to confess that I prefer whipped cream over marshmallow in hot cocoa, but your homemade ones would probably change my opinion. ๐

Such a great mix for the holidays! Love the marshmallow too. Can’t wait to feature this on Saturday Night Fever.

Hmm… I love goats milk, but I’ve never had it powdered.

Do you know what the shelf life of this would be?
Megan
Well, I’ve had mine in my cupboard for nearly a year and I’d still use it…. I think it would depend on when the powdered goat milk expired.
