Feb 16, 2017
You’ve already added a Hygge element to your home, your dinner and your closet, but what about your drinks? Hygge (pronounced hoo-gah), the trendy Danish lifestyle and decor craze that’s all about coziness, is a natural fit for hot cocoa, tea and more warm beverages. But don’t take our word for it — try these 24 recipes yourself, and see just how easy it is to appreciate all that winter has to offer.
Ginger Beet Root Latte
Pink drinks always make us smile, but this one’s extra special. It’s colored naturally, with beet powder, then flavored with ginger for an herbal beverage that will soothe your soul. (via Unrefined RD)

Slow Cooker White Chocolate Cinnamon Lattes
Hot cocoa may be the classic, but white chocolate deserves a little more time in center stage. It’s sweet, indulgent and set off by just a hint of cinnamon in this convenient slow cooker recipe. (via )
Hojicha Cinnamon Latte
Cinnamon gives the green tea latte the extra kick it needs to really keep you warm, no matter what old man winter throws your way. (via )

Sipping Caramel
If you’re the type who orders caramel apples at the fair with no intention of actually eating the apple inside, this one’s for you. Thick and rich, this sipping caramel is everything you want a warm winter drink to be. (via Mary’s Making)
Chamomile Spiced Apple Cider
This caffeine-free beverage is just the thing to help you sleep. It combines chamomile tea with apple cider, to help calm you at the end of a long day. (via Reclaiming Yesterday)

White hot chocolate sounds amazing, yes. But what really sets this drink off are the fluffy, homemade bourbon barrel stout marshmallows. (via Beer Girl Cooks)
Toasty Turmeric Tonic
If you love juicing, you’ll go wild for this drink. It’s a warm turmeric and carrot juice tonic, the perfect solution on cold days when you just don’t feel like pounding an icy smoothie. (via Pine and Crave)

One of the hardest parts of a paleo diet is swearing off the sweets you used to love. This dairy-free paleo cinnamon roll latte helps take the edge off, so you can enjoy the flavors you love without sacrificing your dietary principles. (via Easy GF Recipe)
