Suggestions and alternatives for this recipe: This drink should be made with whole milk to create a better froth and creaminess when mixing. If you have an espresso machine, feel free to swap the brewed coffee for espresso! Trying to cut back on sugar? No problem! Swap the sauce and syrup for Torani Sugar-Free Dark Chocolate Sauce and Torani Sugar-Free Peppermint Syrup. Finally, take your garnish to the next level with a heaping drizzle of Torani Peppermint Bark Sauce.

‧ ½ cup Milk
‧ 2 tbs Torani Dark Chocolate Sauce
‧ 2 tbs Torani Peppermint Syrup
