Tips
Cornstarch acts as an anti-caking agent in humid environments and as a thickener/smoothing agent for creamy hot cocoa.
Adjust sweetness to personal preference; the base recipe is not overly sweet.
Consider using this mix as part of a holiday sipping flight gift set, pairing it with other drinks like white hot chocolate, eggnog, or chai latte.
