Which is first? The powder or the water?

Question

I usually make my hot chocolate by putting powder first, then water. But my mother in law said i was doing it wrong. So she usually put water first and then powder. Which team are you on?

Powder, then small quantity of liquid to make a paste.  Then pour over more whilst stirring = no lumps every time.

Pour it first, then scoop it. Huge gains from the milk and powder. Now if you can't handle dairy then use almond or coconut. If you can't handle those, then use water, preferrably purified water so it doesn't conflict with protein powder.

I put the water in first. That way, there's not a bunch of hot chocolate mix stuck on the bottom that can be hard to stir up.
