As much as I love going to Starbucks to grab a hot coffee drink, I also love to grab a hot chocolate from time to time.
While there are plenty of low carb Starbucks drink options there is not a low carb hot chocolate to grab at Starbucks. So I had to come up with my own, which I do at times pour into a travel mug and bring with me when I go out.

You can also use sugar free syrups to change up the flavors, there are so many different flavors you can make by adding a splash of sugar free syrup!
Add Sugar Free Peppermint Bark Syrup or Torani Sugar Free Peppermint Syrup for a Peppermint Keto Hot Chocolate.
Add some Sugar free Salted Caramel syrup for a Low Carb Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate. It tastes so close to my favorite caramel hot chocolate! I love it!

Add Torani SugarFree Classic Caramel Syrup for a Low Carb Caramel Hot Chocolate.
Just add the flavorings at the same time as you are adding the vanilla extract.
Low Carb Sweeteners for Hot Chocolate
For this recipe I used granule pyure stevia, however you can use your favorite low carb sweetener that you have on hand. I do however you will want to stick with using a granule sweetener, powdered sweetener and liquid sweetener do not work well with this recipe.
Lakanto Monkfruit (Get 20% off when you use coupon code MIDGETMOMMA) and Swerve are the other 2 low carb sweeteners that I use in my house. I have used both of them at times when I have made this keto drink recipe, and both of them worked well.

I’d love to see your website and use your recipes, but I get frustrated every time I go here. There are so many ads and popups I can’t actually find the complete recipe. I use my iPhone for internet so that’s partly the problem I guess. My screen is small and the ad clutter overwhelms your content
