Mix in the hot chocolate mix until well combined. Add in the tea bags, 2 to each mug. Cover mugs with a towel or lid and let steep for as long as you want, but at least 3-4 minutes. Enjoy!
To make on the stovetop
Add the chocolate and milk to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat while constantly stirring. Add 2 tea bags to each mug.
Once the hot chocolate is fully incorporated and the milk is piping hot, remove from the heat. Split between each mug, pouring over the tea bags. Cover them with a towel or lid and let steep for as long as you want, but at least 3-4 minutes. Enjoy!
Helpful Tips
Steep the tea covered with a lid or towel to keep the heat in. Also, you don’t have to remove the tea bag - you can or just keep on sipping.
If using the stovetop method, make sure you keep whisking to keep the milk so it doesn't burn!
Using cocoa powder instead of hot chocolate mix:
Use 3 tablespoon of cocoa powder and 4 tablespoon of maple syrup, honey, or simple syrup in place of hot cocoa mix.
