Christmas DIY

So I've done my Christmas DIY for the year, and I'm quite pleased with how it turned out! I decided to make a friend of mine (and her mom) some Cappuccino Mocha Mix in a jar! It was a lot of fun to make, and turned out really aromatic and I'm sure will be delicious! I wrapped them in brown paper bags, and made little coffee cup tags out of a Christmas orange box and some hemp twine. They looked so cute! I really had fun, which was a present for me too, although, one of them turned out to have a bit more sugar than I might have liked. I'm sure that'll be just perfect for her, though!

Cappuccino Mocha Mix in a Jar

INGREDIENTS:
- 6 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons Instant Espresso Coffee Powder
- 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa
- 1 1/4 cups powdered nondairy creamer (plain, or irish cream)
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

DIRECTIONS:
In a medium bowl, stir together espresso coffee powder, cocoa, nondairy creamer, sugar and cinnamon. Store tightly covered.

ADD TO JAR:
A label that reads "For each cup of cappuccino, measure 4 tablespoons mix into a coffee mug and stir in 6 oz. of boiling water."

Makes 2 1/2 cups of mix.

So now you can go home and make your own! I topped the jar off with some wrapping paper, and some yellow/gold ribbon. I decided not to combine the ingredients, because it looks so much prettier if you don't. But, on the label I made sure to mention that it should be mixed thouroughly before enjoying. Click the picture to enlarge it and read for yourself! I also added a little teaspoon, because, they're cute!

14 days until Christmas!
