Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan or kettle.
If using loose-leaf black tea, place 1 teaspoon of tea leaves in a tea infuser or filter. If using a tea bag, set the tea bag aside.
In a mug, combine 1 teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon of sugar or sweetener of choice.
Once the water is boiling, pour it into the mug and stir until the cocoa powder and sugar have dissolved.
Add the tea bag or tea-infused water to the mug and let steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired tea strength.
Stir in 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract. If you prefer a creamier tea, add 0.25 cups of milk and mix well.
Optional: Top with 1 tablespoon of whipped cream and garnish with 0.25 teaspoons of chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delightful Chocolate Vanilla Tea.
