Happy Weekend Friends! One of my kiddos favorite treats during the summer is frozen hot chocolate. With the hot summers we get it’s a wonderful refreshing treat. Here’s in Southern California we don’t have the coldest winters, so having a cool, refreshing treat is perfect! This week I made up some Peppermint Frozen Hot Chocolate.

Looks super tasty and super simple – a lovely treat for mommy to enjoy! Thanks for sharing, found you at Show & Tell!
So, I’m probably the odd ball here, but I much prefer cold beverages over warm ones, even in the winter. So I love this frozen hot chocolate idea and the addition of peppermint? Yum!
