Besides the creamy, white chocolate flavor, what really sets this drink apart are the details. Clear mugs are crucial to be able to snap a pic of the gorgeous pink coloring! The pink coloring is, after all, the main component of this pink hot chocolate recipe. I used these 8 oz clear coffee mugs from Amazon.

Another thing to consider is having festive sprinkles to top off the drink on top of your whip cream. I ordered the Friends with Benefits sprinkle jar from Fancy Sprinkles. All of their sprinkle jar combos are to DIE FOR and not badly priced either. Highly recommend for any fancy sprinkle orders!
