Just for Canadian readers (although I think there may be a few Timmy's in the US now too) -- if you love both coffee AND hot chocolate, you'll want to try a Cafe Mocha. It's basically half of each topped with whipped topping and a healthy dose of chocolate shavings. I think a medium is about $1.39 -- a lot cheaper than a pricey starbucks creation!
Of course, you could also make this at home -- just half coffee and half hot chocolate with whipped cream on top. YUMMMMMMM

Antioxidant-rich coffee may have health benefits
By Megan Rauscher
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Coffee seems to provide more than a quick pick-me-up. A new study suggests that drinking 1 to 3 cups of coffee per day may help protect against cardiovascular disease and other illnesses characterized by inflammation.
"The findings tend to suggest that there may be some benefit to drinking modest amounts of coffee," Dr. David R. Jacobs, Jr., one of the study's investigators, told Reuters Health.
