📝❣️1 good to store basically forever, so I recommend multiplying recipe to as much as will fit in chosen container (if you’re a stickler for ‘best by’ labels, mark your mix according to ingredients’ soonest expiry date and make as much as you’ll drink by then)
📝❣️2 you CAN make this without the dry milk (vegan friendly if you use organic, unrefined, beet, or coconut sugar): put a couple tablespoons of mix in the bottom of mug and stir in hot milk or hot milk alternative
📝❣️3 no cocoa butter? maybe try substituting white, milk, semisweet, or dark chocolate and balancing the switch with less sugar and/or cocoa powder – good luck🤞 please comment below if your experiments provide knowledge worth sharing
📝❣️4 to create mocha mix instead, increase the instant coffee powder to 1/4c; 21g

✨gratitude to Good Eats for inspiration✨
