Mint hot cocoa is sold as powdered mixes, chocolate bombs or balls, and candy-style pieces.
Place the chocolate bomb in a mug and pour hot milk over it (about 6 oz in some directions). Stir as the shell melts to release the fillings and mix the cocoa.
Many mint hot cocoa bombs include mini marshmallows, and some are topped or filled with crushed peppermint or peppermint candy pieces.
Powdered containers commonly list about 8 servings per container, while some holiday boxes list 6 servings. Serving size is often given as 4 tablespoons of mix per cup.
Descriptions emphasize a rich mint–chocolate profile, using phrases like smooth, creamy mint-chocolate, cool refreshing mint paired with rich dark chocolate, or velvety cocoa with a hint of peppermint.
Powdered mixes are commonly prepared with hot water, hot milk, or a nondairy alternative, while chocolate bombs are typically activated by pouring hot milk over them.
