SIMPLE HOT COCOA FOR ONE
As with hot chocolate, use any milky liquid you prefer, whether it's from a cow, nuts (almond milk), beans (soy milk), or grains (rice milk). For sweeteners, feel free to substitute maple syrup, honey, or agave nectar for sugar, but start with less, about 1 tablespoon, and taste the combination before adding more.

CHOCOLATEY HOT COCOA FOR ONE
This recipe has much less sugar than other cocoa recipes or mixes. The result is a rich-tasting, chocolatey drink that is easy to make with ingredients you can keep on hand. This recipe is just from the 1997 edition of Joy of Cooking. This recipe makes less than a full cup of hot cocoa, but I find this amount is satisfying. You can always play with the serving sizes if you want more.
