Good news for all the red velvet lovers out there. Now you can enjoy the taste of your favorite cake in hot chocolate form. This rich, creamy red velvet hot chocolate drink has all the flavors of the classic cake. And the best part – you can dress it up the way you want – with chocolate, whipped cream or marshmallows!
The red velvet is a classic flavour which has hints of both vanilla and chocolate. And a bright red color from the food color added. I have used both white and dark chocolate to flavour this drink. It is a great drink to have when you just want to laze around on a wintery day with a hot drink and a book or when binge watching your favourite show!
