Hot chocolate
Curling up with a cup of hot cocoa is one way to feel snug—just nix the sugary powdered mix with marshmallow bits. "When I make it, I like to melt two squares ofdark chocolate and stir it into regular or almond milk," says Cynthia Sass, MPH, RD, Health's contributing nutrition editor. Adding a little dark chocolate to your diet is a great health booster too. The sweet contains flavonoids, a type of antioxidant thought to reduce the damage caused by free radicals, potential instigators of cancer and cardiovascular disease. A study in the Journal of Immunology Research found thatred blood cells were less susceptible to free radicals after people consumed a drink with flavonoid-rich cocoa.
