One of my great friends made a mug of this for me one winters day. She told me how her family always takes it along on camping trips. I just couldn't leave without the recipe. I have enjoyed making it for my family and now this year I am filling liquid creamer bottles with it, decorating them as snowmen, and passing them out for teacher gifts. I'm happy to share it with the JAP community as well.

Ingredients

2 cups instant cocoa (ovaltine or ghirardelli cocoa with chocolate are my favoites)
2 cups instant non dairy creamer, plain (coffeemate not the cheap stuff because you want creamy not just "white")
1 cup instant coffee or espresso powder
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

How To Make fireside coffee mix

Step 1

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and store in a well sealed container

Step 2

To make a cup, stir 3 heaping teaspoons into a cup of water. To be quite honest, I use more of the mix per cup than this because I fill my mug up and/or use a cappuccino size mug.
Step 3

This is great on road trips, camping trips, to give as gifts in pretty containers, or just to keep on hand at home all winter long.
