Double Chocolate Coffee Drink

1    Large coffee cup
3/4 cup coffee
3/4 cup milk
2    Tablespoons Chocolate syrup
1    Package of Hot Chocolate mix

This coffee drink is extremely simple to make, and it's done with things we typically have around the kitchen!

Simply brew your coffee, heat your milk, then combine ALL of the ingredients! You have a nice coffee drink that has the sweetness of the chocolate, the slight bitterness and the caffine of the coffee. It tastes great hot or cold! This is a great alternative to Starbucks or any campus coffee shop! Think of how inexpensive it will be!

Welcome to All!

Welcome to my blog!

This blog is going to be dedicated to bringing you delicious recipes on a budget! Yes, the title of the blog is 'Eating for College Students', however my recipes will be great for anyone needing a break in their grocery shopping!

Every once in a while I will bring you a recipe that may cost a little bit extra, but I will try to keep the prices low. A lot of things people don't realize is that purchasing off brand groceries can almost cut your costs in half! Honestly, the off brands (typically) taste just as good, if not better, than big name brands!

So, I HATE to be cheesy, but with all of this being said, LET THE HUNGER GAMES BEGIN! May your grocery store have prices ever in your favor!

Love, Erin
