Unicorn Hot Chocolate is one of the hottest new beverage trends! It's made with white hot chocolate, which is then dyed pink, and topped with whipped cream and shiny candy sprinkles. It's a must if you have a little girl who loves unicorns— but can be enjoyed by anyone who is young at heart!

Unicorn Hot Chocolate AKA Pink Hot Chocolate

I am on a roll this week with unicorn crafts and recipes— I just can't get enough! My daughter has been helping me come up with ideas and she's the one that suggested I make unicorn hot chocolate. Apparently, it's "thing" in NYC and sometimes goes by pink hot chocolate. It really doesn't matter what you call it because it's AMAZING!

I never even realized white hot chocolate was available until we looked for it to make unicorn hot chocolate. It's not always available at your local grocery store, so if you can't find it right away, head over to Amazon (that's what we did!). I actually think I prefer white hot chocolate now that I've tried it. Granted, this was the only time I've had it and it was loaded with whipped cream, candy sprinkles, and marshmallows...
