Making hot chocolate for a family gathering is so much fun. What better way to make it an event to remember than by buying some personalized mugs for everyone to keep as a party favor after.
These ones were a brilliant price on Amazon and can be delivered straight to your home.

Alternatively, you could buy a set of themed mugs like these ones.
But that’s enough of the mugs, let’s unleash our inner chocoholics with some epic homemade hot chocolate recipes!
