Matcha Mint Hot Chocolate

Happy Friday!! Another week down but another delicious and delightful recipe for you! Matcha Mint Hot Chocolates in the house!!!

It’s nearly the weekend which means you need to indulge and treat yo-self to a mug of pure deliciousness. These simple stove-top decadent hot chocolate are my absolute favourite at the moment! Don’t you just lovveee stove-top hot chocolates? Yes they may take a little longer to make but not that much longer, it’s worth it you guys…

The marshmallows have been coated in Matcha and these green vibes will certainly make you want to make a big batch of these scrumptious hot chocolates don’t you agree? It’s the first day of Spring here in Australia but you won’t be able to drag me away from my all-time favourite hot beverage, the all mighty hot chocolate, if you didn’t already guess, haha!

You can also just leave these hot chocolates just with the matcha and chocolate but the added peppermint extract really adds a another dimension of flavour and excitement.

This is also a wonderful way to enjoy matcha if you’re not yet used to the slightly bitter flavour of a pure matcha beverage and besides, matcha and chocolate is a match made in heaven! With added mint, oh my goodness, YES! Enjoy these beauties my friends and have a happy and healthy weekend!
