Hot Drinks for Cold Weather

Old man winter is alive and well this year, and what better way to come in from the cold than with a nice hot drink? When it comes to helping your children ward off the bone-chilling cold, here are a few beverages that are always in season, especially when the digits on the thermometer continue to drop. It goes without saying that hot chocolate is the go-to drink for your little ones. Opt for the pre-packaged (and sugar-free) brands such as Swiss Miss. You can also make your own tempting blend from scratch. Simply combine 2 cups of milk, 2 tablespoons of honey and 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Spice things up with by adding a chocolate mint or a peanut butter cup to put a unique twist on a family favorite. An apple cider a day is another way to keep that frosty feeling away. This drink is good to the core.
