The Cocoa'-Latte machine - a GREAT family gift! Review/Giveaway

Gift Idea

Plow & Hearth

As I sit here writing this I am sipping a Piping HOT cup of Hot Chocolate that I just made in Plow and Hearth's Cocoa Latte Machine. I'll be honest I've been enjoying it for a few weeks. Now that it's chilly outside and we are all wanting to stay warm and cosy inside it's time for a review of this wonderful little machine - and how about a giveaway too?

This wonderful little machine makes all kinds of warming drinks like Hot Chocolate, Hot Apple Cider, Cappuccino, Chai and other great drinks too like Hot Toddies. 

About the size of a medium sized blender the pitcher part makes enough for about 4 cups. The best thing about the pitcher is that there are 1 cup and 1/2 cup markings on the side so you don't have to use a bunch of different measuring tools. There is a little spout in the front and and if you hit the switch on the far of this machine (in this picture) you can froth up your Hot Chocolates & Cappucchino's. The base of the machine is brushed silver so it matches most kitchens.

Canadian Spiced Maple Coffee

I haven't had any problem with this FUN little machine except once. I had poured in a little of the milk and it just started pouring out of the spigot. I ended up having to take the spigot off and separating it (per the instructions in the manual) and rinsing it out really good. It is suggested in the manual to clean it each time you use it. Once I did it worked perfectly.

Gift Idea: This would be a perfect gift for a teenager, for a dorm room, wedding gift or even a gift basket filled with instant coffee granules and hot chocolate mixes. Be sure to add a large thing of Ice Cream chocolate topping, cinnamon and Hershey's cocoa powder.

Cinnamon Dusted Mocha

(Side Note: I have problems with dairy, whey and soy and have found that I can make delicious mocha's, cappuccino's and latte's using So Delicious' Coconut Milk and also their new Creamers. I'm sure Soy and Almond Milk work well too.)
