This was excellent! A note for reviewer Framuesa: Putting just a few drops of hot water into the dry mix allows you to mix the powder into a paste before you add the rest of the liquid so that there are no "floaties".

Superb! I used generic hot chocolate mix but still felt like I was having coffee shop quality.

This is a wonderful recipe! Easy and quick to make. Note: If using hot chocolate mix that does not contain powdered milk, it is recommended to increase the proportion of milk to water used in this recipe. [Switch milk and water amounts.] Also if it is not spicy enough for you possibly add some cayenne.

I used unsweetened cocoa instead of instant powder, and it was so rich and chocolaty! Delicious!

I just made this because I've had it on my list for a while, and finally decided to try it. It was GREAT! My husband loved it as well. I'm thinking that I may increase the milk content and decrease the water (or just use a cup of milk and skip the water entirely.) I would definitely add the dry ingredients then the water/milk, then the chocolate syrup; it seemed a bit lumpy once I got to the end...but definitely worth making again!

The chocolate syrup adds that extra richness that is sometimes missing in powdered instant chocolate mixes. Yummy!

This was easy and great...I had to make 3 batches since the kids couldn't get enough...I also added a bit of ovaltine for some nutrition and a slightly malty flavor.

This is was very good! I added just a tad of vanilla. I don't like milk, so I used soy milk, it worked great. I think the soy milk really brought out the flavor in this drink!

Oh My Goodness!!!! This is the best thing ever. I have always loved mexican hot chocolate but I have never made it until now! I did use all milk and it is sooo creamy. Also, there was a group of adults and we put peppermint schnapps in it and YUMMMMY! I was a huge hit, both with adults and kids!
