This recipe is so forgiving. You can customize it to your own taste. It tasted too sweet for me, so I upped the coffee granules (to 3/4 c.) and added about 1/8 c. cinnamon. Just right for me! I plan to package some as gifts for Valentines Day.

I first made this recipe as is, and I didn't care for it much. I added a bit more sugar, cocoa, and coffee and I love it!

i have to give this a 3.5 stars because it seemed too bland-my husband said it tasted more like hot chocolate- so I had to add additional coffee and sugar. took the suggestion to add cinnamon which added to the fragrance. An economical gift with supplies from Costco and jars from Ikea.

Fantastic. To answer the "chocolate drink mix" questions, think Nestle Quik. Not hot chocolate powder.

LOVED this recipe! I was reluctant, but thought it would be nice for teacher gifts. I only had 1/2 the ingredients which only yielded 3 to 4 gift mugs. I bought cute holiday cellophane bags to put the mix in. I used vanilla flavored creamer as suggested and added a tsp of cinnamon which was delicious in my sample mug!

I just have to tell you that I LOVE this recipe!! I made it last night for presents for people and of course I had to try some of it before I packaged it up for all to have and I was in heaven! It is a light flavor, not overwhelming and not too heavy on the coffee. I think this is something that all will love. My sister doesn't usually like mocha and she was head over heals for this. I was very happy that it turned out so well because the recipes yeild more than I kinda thought it would have, which is a good thing. Thanks for the recipe Bea!

This is a perfect blend! I had to get out the stock pot because I didn't have a bowl big enough to stir without making a mess. These will make great Holiday Gifts! Thank you for sharing!
