Creating a hot drink station is fun and easy! My kitchen has one and it's been a wonderful addition during the winter months.
We have a very busy household. My hubby works from home, our daughters are busy with school activities, homework and sports.
We tend to host a lot of friends and family during the week and this station really takes a lot of stress away from feeling like I have to prepare or entertain my guests when they are coming over for a quick visit or drop-off.
I wanted to create a little oasis in my kitchen for everyone to make a cup of tea, hot chocolate, hot cider or coffee anytime they wanted. So I created a hot drink station in a corner of my kitchen counter.
It's one of the very best things I've ever done!

Put Together the Hot Drink Station
Next to the Keurig machine, I simply put everything on the trays. I put the sweeteners in their containers, teas and hot cocoa in their own containers. I decorate the area to make it an easy station to craft up a nice warm beverage. Have fun with it, there is no right or wrong with this!
