 WHAT IT IS Baby, it's cold outside! After a winter outdoor activity, a steaming drink is just the restorative comfort. The BonJour Hot Chocolate Maker heats up a foaming hot beverage in the microwave, then the whip included froths up satisfying cups of warmth, all in less than five minutes. WHY WE LIKE IT Ease and convenience are the hallmarks of this device. The 32-ounce ceramic, microwave-proof pot is the modern-day version of the European hot chocolate makers of yore. Pour 4 cups of milk or an equal combination of milk and water along with chopped semesweet chocolate or chocolate syrup into the pot and microwave for 4 minutes. Remove; place lid on the pot and insert the battery-powered mixing unit through the hole in the lid and push the button to whirl, mix, and foam your beverage of choice: old-fashioned hot chocolate, cafe mocha, chai tea, or cafe au lait. The well-designed, easy-pour spout and comfortable handle make it easy to pour out your aromatic beverage. Yum! DETAILS The BonJour Hot Chocolate Maker (model 53770) cylinder is made of microwave-proof ceramic and is recommended to be hand washed.
