There’s nothing like a fresh cup of hot cocoa for a sweet treat or to break the grip of a cold winter morning. However, while many traditional hot chocolate recipes call for steamed or warmed milk, Keurig beverages must be made with water.
Once you’ve added filtered water to your Keurig, you can choose from a wide variety of delicious chocolate options to fix a cup of this delicious treat.
