Hot chocolate with peanut butter and hazelnuts

If you are a chocolate addict then this will be an unforgettable drink for you. All you need is a saucepan in which you can steam milk and add drinking chocolate or cocoa powder, sugar and a pinch of Nutella. As the milk boils, add a few spoons of peanut butter and top your drink with mini marshmallows. Whether it’s at the end of the monsoon or the beginning of winter, sipping this drink will be like a warm hug on a cold day.

Delicious alcohol-free eggnog

Although this one is considered a Christmas special, it’s never too early in the season to make eggnog. Just whisk the eggs, sugar with a pinch of salt and pour in the milk while turning on the heat over low heat. Stir continuously until it thickens, which can take almost 30 minutes. Then filter the drink and mix in the vanilla essence and grated nutmeg before refrigerating it for 3 hours. Then add the whipped cream and serve.

A vegan matcha latte

If you’ve been considering switching to a vegan lifestyle, try this herbal drink for a delicious treat. Start by boiling a teaspoon of matcha powder in boiling water and add a little gelatin. Whisk until smooth and add a generous splash of hot coconut milk and stevia or jaggery. Once steamed, the matcha latte will be ready to serve.
