Holiday hot chocolate is growing in popularity as restaurants across Washington give this old favorite a lift with new flavors that adults and kids enjoy, according to Camille St. Onge of the Washington Restaurant Association.

“To keep the calories down, and to make this holiday favorite more healthy and less filling at the same time, we recommend heating — not boiling — low- fat chocolate milk,” St. Onge said.

Hot chocolate milk mixes well with many flavors, and is especially popular during the winter season. The Holiday Hot Chocolate project with low-fat milk is a cooperative project of the Washington Restaurant Association and the Dairy Farmers of Washington.
