If you love the Disney movie Frozen as much as we do, you will love this Elsa Hot Cocoa Recipe. Inspired by Queen Elsa, it is a vanilla chocolate cocoa colored teal blue and topped with whipped cream and mini marshmallows.

My daughter loves Frozen and it’s all she’s into these days so we had to make a fun Elsa inspired hot cocoa and that is just what we did!
This Hot Cocoa is super easy to make using just 6 ingredients and can be made in just minutes! It’s the perfect way to heal a frozen heart (get it?).
Elsa’s Hot Cocoa
- Milk – Whole milk is best as it gives it a creamy consistency
- Vanilla Extract – I prefer pure vanilla extract but you can use imitation as well.
- Ghirardelli White Chocolate Wafers, cut into small pieces
- Teal Blue Gel Food Coloring – I used the teal color from this Wilton pack.
- Whipped Cream
- Mini Marshmallows

How to Make Elsa’s Hot Cocoa:
Combine milk, vanilla and white chocolate in a medium saucepan, stir to mix.
Heat the white chocolate on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a simmer. (Do not let it come to a boil.)

Remove the white chocolate from from heat and stir in the blue gel food coloring. I added about 2-3 drops until it became the color I wanted.
Carefully pour the hot cocoa into the cup.
Top with whipping cream and mini marshmallows.
Serve warm and Enjoy!
