This Will Cause a Stir!

Looking for a way to warm someone's heart and soul this holiday season? A cup of hot cocoa will not only warm the soul, it's frothing with health benefits for the heart! Researchers at Cornell University found that cocoa contains an abundance of antioxidants that seek and destroy cancer-causing agents and help to eliminate compounds in the body that contribute to heart disease and other ailments. Watkins has a variety of cocoas to choose from, including limited edition Peppermint Stick, Cinnamon and White Chocolate Almond Cocoas—available only through the holidays—as well as French Vanilla Cocoa that taste as good as homemade but require only the addition of hot water.
