Okay, admit it, you have people on your gift giving list that you have no clue what to get them. Well, everyone eats and drinks so I usually turn to the kitchen when I am truly stumped. Here are three extremely easy yet very yummy drink mix recipes that will impress everyone on your gift giving list: two instant cappuccino mixes and one instant chai latte mix. In fact, once you are done, kick back and drink a mug yourself…you deserve it!
Instant Chocolate Hazelnut Cappuccino Mix
Equipment Needed:
Food Processor
Measuring Cups
Jars/Zip Lock Bags for Storage
Ingredients:
1 cup instant coffee
3 cups powdered dry milk (I prefer Sanalac brand but any will work)
1 1/2 cup powdered hazelnut coffee creamer
1 cup sugar
2 small boxes of instant chocolate pudding
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a food processor fitted with the large blade. Blend until smooth and completely mixed.* Divide and store in air tight containers: canning jars, zip lock bags, etc.
How to Enjoy:
Place 3 or 4 heaping Tbsp of dry mix into your 8 oz mug. Add hot water, stir, and enjoy!
Instant Vanilla Hazelnut Cappuccino Mix
Equipment Needed:
Food Processor
Measuring Cups
Jars/Zip Lock Bags for Storage
Ingredients:
1 cup instant coffee
3 cups powdered dry milk (I prefer Sanalac brand but any will work)
1 1/2 cup powdered hazelnut coffee creamer or 1 cup powdered hazelnut coffee creamer + 1/2 cup french vanilla coffee creamer
1 cup sugar
2 small boxes of instant vanilla pudding
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a food processor fitted with the large blade. Blend until smooth and completely mixed.* Divide and store in air tight containers: canning jars, zip lock bags, etc.
How to Enjoy:
Place 3 or 4 heaping Tbsp of dry mix into your 8 oz mug. Add hot water, stir, and enjoy!
*I find that blending all of these mixes in a food processor helps to not only thoroughly mix all the ingredients but by making the mix more powdery aids in how well it all dissolves/mixes with the hot water and also keeps the ingredients from “settling”.
