I just want to add, it's like a coffee - breakfast - snack substitute all in one. And it's great in a travel mug when you are in a hurry.
You can add an extra egg if you feel like it or use butter instead of coconut oil.

Thanks for posting this, Heather!
I should probably start doing this, so when I finally give up the coffee (before the end of this month!) I will be prepared to have a better hot drink in the mornings!

Heather, are you using the unprocessed (coconutty flavored) or refined (flavorless) type of coconut oil for this?

Mine is flavorless. I just add it for extra fat.

Okay, good. I was trying to psyche myself up to put the coconutty stuff in. I guess it would give it a sort of asian/thai feel, but...yuck. I never really liked coconut, but I learned to like the oil quite a bit. I'm just not sure about using it with savory items.

Use butter if you want or use no fat at all, it's all good.

YUMMY!!I just made this for the first time and am drinking it now. Oh my goodness, it's delish! I used the coconut oil and it does give the drink a slight Asian touch, but very rich tasting.
I used two tsp of "Better than Bouillion" and an extra-large mug (probably 16 ounces).
This is definitely a keeper!
