Even though it is not really cold yet, when waiting for Sinterklaas' boat to appear on TV, a warm drink is certainly very tasty. That is why we make hot chocolate today, with the scent of speculaas and cinnamon. Whipped milk on top with sprinkles makes this Sinterklaas drink really festive. With some (purchased) chocolate kruidnootjes on the side, it is actually becoming a tiny party!
