Nestle makes a hot cocoa mix that's only 20 cals, fat free and no sugar- this is where you start- mix with 6oz coffee instead of flavored creamer. I sometimes add 1/2 cup hot skim milk for calcium... SO yummy it tastes like you're being bad when you aren't! What's not to LOVE about that?

I don't like coffee either, but I put 1 tsp. instant coffee with 1 tsp. diet hot chocolate and ice cubes and skim milk and blend it together for about 140 cal....when I need a caffeine boost after a bad night's sleep.

This sounds really yummy. I don't really like the taste of coffee, unless it's an added flavor to something. I'll try this for sure.

This sounds fab! I will have to look for this cocoa! Just started drinking coffee and am using sweet n low and 1/8 tsp vanilla extract. Nice vanilla flavor without the cals. But I DO prefer chocolate!
