what are some things I can add to a hot chocolate mix for different flavors?

One of the things I am making for Christmas gifts is Homemade hot chocolate. I was thinking it might be nice to make a few different flavors and give everyone a basket with each with some mugs and marshmallows. But does anyone know how to add the flavoring or what would be good in it? I was thinking of using a bit of instant coffee for a mocha flavored one but what else?
--------------------
you can always add whatever sounds good to you. i suggest: finely crushed peppermint candies, finely crushed caramel or toffee candies, instant coffee, flavored powdered creamer, cinnamon, different flavored hot cocoa mixtures, i've even had a coffee drink with slivered toasted almonds on the side... when you add them to a really hot drink, the almond oil makes it so aeromatic and amazing! really... it's up to you! be creative. you also may want to consider adding some peppermint sticks to stir with and some grahm crackers or other complimenting treats. enjoy.
