Chicago weather is tricky. Just when you think you see a glimpse or two of spring, along comes a layer of lake effect snow to remind you that winter is still here like the guest that stayed to long. How about adding a glimpse of sunshine and the tropics to your cocoa next time?

Another good one, Courtney! Plus, nice pic!
WOW, I may just use this drink when I'm in dire need of Bananas Foster. I LOVE the addition of Cocoa Powder. Thanks Courtney...
