My husband and I love this warm cozy drink, we make it using only a little sugar. Highly highly recommend it.
Another fun one to try.
This was fantastic! Compliments nicely with the chilly weather.
Delicious! Can not wait to make more and gift it throughout the holiday season.
I made it and enjoyed it but I think for my personal taste I’m gonna add a bit more peppermint and chocolate for a richer stronger flavor 🥰
Love it!
Such a genius recipe idea for the holidays!
Hi from Germany. I Love this Latte. But.....I made 1 Serving to test it.....and ended with 3 teaspoons of the mix. But you write to take 1.5 teaspoons for 1 serving....I am confused.
Can you help. All the best, Alice
Loved it! We drank it all. Ready for spring now. 😄
Hi there! I was just wondering how many ounces the jar I’m the video was? I just want to get an idea of how many servings would go in my mason jar. Thank you!
I am not a fan of coffee but your latte recipe video has so many delicious recipes I want to try! Is it possible for me to omit the coffee granules, and if so would I have to adjust the other ingredients to compensate?
I made this for myself and did the mix to give as gifts. This is Christmas in a cup! So delicious and so comforting!
I am looking forward to trying this out; i think i will try with some powdered milk as well, and , i may buy a bunch of the candy canes on sale now this this lol , Happy New Year
I really don't like coffee, can I leave that step out of the recipe? You guys are doing a great job. I'm a big fan! Keep up the good work and love.
Tried this and it's freakin' delicious! So glad I have mix ready to go when I need it. I drink this every day!
Made a batch of six of these for my family members and one for myself and I am in LOVE. It actually tastes amazing and I'm so excited to give away for Christmas!
Dear Sadia,
I lovelovelooove your channel! I've been a fan for years, now. You always come up with delicious, healthy recipes and your indications are invariably clear and to to the point, aside from being a lot of fun to watch ;)
I'm thinking about preparing this mix for my parents as part of a festive gift basket, but I wonder if I could substitute the mint candy with actual dry mint leaves, since both of them are well over 80 and the recipe already calls for 6 plus grs of sugar per serving.
Thanking you in advance for your kind reply and wishing you a lovely holiday season from Gran Canaria,

Lovely holiday coffee and so easy to prepare! I made a jar of the powder and enjoy a cup every morning, but mine isn't as beautiful as Sadia's.
Hey! I made it twice already and it's really suuuper fast and tastes delicious. I didn't add the peppermint candie cause I don't like it and it still tasted amazing.
My mum and I absolutely love this recipe!! My mum refuses to consume any refined sugar, so I made this for her with just some dark chocolate peppermint candies (unsweetened), cacao power, TimHorton’s instant coffee and oat milk, and to my surprise she loves it! In fact she asked me to make this for her this morning again instead of coffee!! Earlier this month she helped me assemble this in several jars that I’ll be giving away as presents. I had a tough time connecting with mum for a while and we actually bonded over this! So thank you so much Sadia! Sending you lots of love and wishing you a very merry Christmas!
I wanted to give this mix as a gift for a few people because who doesn't love a peppermint mocha?! I made a batch for myself to test out first and wow...it's sweet, cozy, delicious, and easy to make! I'd 100% recommend making this!
If I could give this drink 5+ stars I would! I absolutely loved it and now I have two tubes of peppermint sweets so I have all the more reason to make it again many times! Your Mocha Smoothie is my fave so really no surprise I loved this with the festive minty twist!
Just made the mix and tried a cuppa… just right for a cold and rainy Pacific Northwest evening. I used a blend of unsweetened almond milk and an unsweetened coconut-almond creamer. Lit a couple of candles and am enjoying the coziness of this delicious beverage. Thanks for the recipe!
Hello, love the recipe I made quite a few as presents, do you do a hot chocolate recipe as well? Thanks
Hey there, I was just wondering if cane sugar was used for the mix or just regular granulated sugar? I’m the video it looks slightly different than the regular granulated sugar that I have at home. I am so excited to try this!! Thank you!
I love it! Thanks
Made this to have on hand for my guests who will be with us for the holidays and of course had to give it a try myself to make sure it was delicious....and WOW! It has the right amount of both chocolate and mint, and is so much more delicious than any coffee chain's version. I did layer it in the jar (just to see how pretty it was) and it is as beautiful as it is delicious!
Hi
I’m giving this as presents for 10 people (family and friends). I have a question though,
Would this be too sweet? I got some dark chocolate but it’s sweetened(president’s choice 70% dark), and the candy canes are also sweet, I’m worried if it’s going to be too sweet! Should the dark chocolate be unsweetened?
Cold dark Sunday here in France. This went down a treat, and was a lovely treat!
The coffee cuts across the sweetness and the the peppermint adds a festive sense.
Can't wait to try the others.
I think it’s safe to say that this is my new favourite cozy-up drink😄
We tried it, used mint candy called polo(with extra mint) which is easily available in India. It turned out awesome. I have been watching your show since 3 years and I am a huge fan of your work. I have read many books you suggested.
Thank you for doing just a great job. Love your work and always eager to watch and try your new recipe
If I were to make this as a present, what
ounce size jar would I need to be using to get a 24 servings to fit?
Nice idea for little Christmas gifts - came just in time!
