I also happen to have this cool mermaid at heart mug. It is great quality but I do recommend hand washing it, even though it states it is dishwasher safe. After a half dozen washes or so on the top rack, some of the gold lettering started to fade.

To make blue hot chocolate you’ll want to include a single drop of blue dye. No more than that is needed! I love this Wilton Color Right set to get just the right amount every time.
