Snow Cocoa

Take one of nature's prettiest gifts and turn it into a fun family drink

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/snow-cocoa • Posted by Yumology

I love snow for so many reasons. It's festive. It's beautiful. It's fun to play in and it's even more fun to cook with. Say wha?! That's right, making snow shakes is one of the highlights of our year. Snow shakes are a great way to celebrate the first snow of the season. It has become a tradition in our house, although I'll admit we usually make them for the first, second, third and sometime fourth snow storm of the year. The safest way to go about collecting your snow is to scrape it off of an outside tabletop, that way you don't risk any unwanted dirt, stones or doggie deposits in your snow shake. If you don't have snow you can easily make these with ice in a blender but the fine texture of snow is really what makes this drink amazing. Here you go Yummies, grab your bowl and head outside!
