This is a super rich, sweet coffee drink! Easy to mix up, and perfect for packaging and adding to gift baskets!

The person who gave this one star wasn't using something that you would put in coffee without lots of sugar. It's no wonder it tasted bad. Anyway, I haven't tried this yet, but it is a good option if you don't want to add all the sugar that the other recipes call for, 1 1/2 cups of sugar compared to 1/4 cup and 1 cup of Ovaltine Rich Chocolate. My kids love Ovaltine, so might give this a shot. Thanks for the option!

I used Hershey's dark chocolate cocoa. I found out I don't like the taste of cocoa.
