Snowman Peppermint White Hot Chocolate

Makes 2 servings

2 cups milk
2 — 4 peppermint herbal tea bags (use 2 for light peppermint flavor and 4 for stronger flavor)
4 ounces good quality white chocolate, coarsely chopped
Whipped cream, for garnish
White chocolate curls, for garnish

1. Place milk and tea bags in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbles begin to form around the edges of the pan, then immediately turn down the heat to low, and let simmer for 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to make sure the milk does not burn.

2. Carefully squeeze out any liquid from the tea bags, then discard. Turn off the heat, then immediately add the chocolate to the saucepan. When the chocolate begins to melt, whisk to combine, then continue whisking until a light foam forms. Serve immediately garnished with whipped cream and chocolate curls.
