For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the hot chocolate while it simmers. Experiment with different types of chocolate, such as semi-sweet or dark chocolate, to customize the richness of the drink. To create a vegan version, substitute the whole milk with your favorite plant-based milk alternative, such as almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk.
