You could do a google search for keto hot chocolate recipe and see if it comes up with something nice?Hi, I used to have a cup of Options Belgian hot chocolate at bedtime. Sadly it contains too much sugar so I've given it up but peppermint tea doesn't cut it. Any suggestions welcome, please.
I have done this without sweetener. Watch the cocoa, some have sugar in. One I used to buy doesn't. Green and Blacks Organic. Made up with I presume milk it does.I used to make cocoa the old fashioned way (mix cocoa powder with small cold milk. Heat mugful of milk, stir coca mix in, stir again) but add a sweetener or 2.
Trying to minimise the sweetners now though so don't have it as often
Yes, but it can be a bit of a minefield.So we must look at the carbs in all artificial sweeteners really
Try lemon and ginger tea. That can be very warming and comforting. Peppermint tea doesnt cut it for me any time of day.Hi, I used to have a cup of Options Belgian hot chocolate at bedtime.

I'll double-like this but I'd be tempted to have a few sips before work ends!I have a single malt whisky before bed.
I've tried this with Bob milk. Works for me, thank you!Cocoa powder with boiled water, liquid stevia drops and either unsweetened almond or hazelnut "milk", or full fat cream.

I've picked up Asda's own brand. No sugar. Carbs 8.7 of which 0.5 are from sugar.I have done this without sweetener. Watch the cocoa, some have sugar in. One I used to buy doesn't. Green and Blacks Organic. Made up with I presume milk it does.
Thank you. I'ver tried this over a fortnight and it works for me. By accident I took a sip of my wife's Option chocolate last night and -- eeeewwww! -- too sweet!Cocoa powder with boiled water, liquid stevia drops and either unsweetened almond or hazelnut "milk", or full fat cream.
