You Will Need (4 things)

  • 50 g Good quality Chocolate . Remember that Less ingredients = Better Chocolate. Ideally you're looking for cocoa mass, cocoa butter and Natural Vanilla (not vanillin- that will give you an artificial sweetness). If you're going for white chocolate leave aside those with palm o
  • 300 ml Full fat Milk (soy, almond milk and rice drink work good too)
  • Spices according to your taste. Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Vanilla Pod, a pinch of Chilli or Cardamom pod would make your drink more aromatic. You can add some Honey or your favorite sweetener. Have a play with it!
  • Corn Flour

Steps (1 step, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    Grate your chocolate while heating up the milk in a pot. If you're using Cardamom- bite the pod and put it in the pot.
    When the milk is starting to bubble add your flaked chocolate to it and stir everything with a wooden spoon until all the chocolate is melted. If you want to make it thicker, but don't want to add more chocolate - try adding a little bit of Corn Flour. Mix it with a little bit of cold milk first and then pour the mixture into your drinking chocolate while you're heating it up. Heat it up for a bit until it thickens and serve.

    It will take you to the land of the chocolate bliss!
