It’s rich, it’s creamy, and it’s for everybody (vegan-friendly)! The best part? It’s ridiculously easy to make.
I wanted to make hot chocolate using chocolate pieces, not powder. Because I am a huge matcha lover, I decided to combine the two, and thus, hot chocolate just got a major upgrade. Try dipping the marshmallows into this creamy drink, you’ll love it for sure.
PERFECT for the holiday season.

- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp matcha powder

Hot Chocolate
- Add all the hot chocolate ingredients together in a pot over medium low heat. Be sure to whisk the mixture often to prevent anything sticking/burning on the bottom.

Matcha Coconut Whipped Cream
- For the coconut whipped cream, beat all ingredients until smooth with an electric mixer for about 2 minutes.
Notes
