Cold-Weather Belly Warmers

Few things are better than a warm drink on a frosty day. Beat the winter chill with one of these toasty treats:

  • Simmer cranberry-apple juice with cinnamon, cloves, allspice and an orange peel for about 20 minutes. Strain, then stir in fat-free milk powder and vanilla extract. Heat all the way through.
  • Add anise seeds, ground cinnamon and ground cloves to ground coffee. Prepare hot coffee using the spiced ground coffee. Lighten with low-fat milk.
  • Scoop praline or chocolate-swirl low-fat frozen yogurt into a mug. Pour hot cocoa or coffee over the top. Stir with a cinnamon stick.

You can mix up frothy winter treats of your own; just remember to use low-calorie ingredients that pack a flavorful punch.
