When the kind folks at Green Mountain Coffee asked me to tell you about about my favorite indulgence, I thought to myself, “Only one?”. If you hadn’t noticed, I’m a girl who thrives on indulgences, whether it’s a mid-day coffee break, a Saturday afternoon manicure, or the occasional splurge on an expensive pair of shoes.
When the weather turns cold, one of my very favorite indulgences after a hard day of cardio is curling up by my beautiful new fireplace with my pups, a pile of magazines and a cup of seriously decadent hot chocolate (you’ll note the appropriate chocolate-to-marshmallow ratio). These Keurig pods are so seamless, it makes a little indulgence into a dangerously easy habit. I’m a dark chocolate girl through and through, so Café Escapes’ dark chocolate hot cocoa was the obvious pick. If a sweet tooth’s your big problem in life, rest assured – Café Escapes is the ultimate sweet fix. Me, I like my cocoa on the less-sweet side (more room for marshmallows that way), but adding a dash of cinnamon and a bit of unsweetened cocoa works wonders for upping the indulgence factor. As would some peppermint schnapps, but that’s an idea for another day.
