Ingredients
  

  • 2 Mexican drinking chocolate bars
  • 4 Cinnamon sticks
  • 1 litre  Milk / Water

Instructions
 

  • Take a tall narrow pot and pour milk/water into it while keeping the stove heat low.
  • Add 2 chocolate bars into this pot. 
  • When the chocolate starts melting, gently move it with the molinillo for about 20 minutes to dissolve it completely. 
  • After the dissolution of the chocolate, froth the beverage with the help of a wooden molinillo for about 10 minutes. Continue frothing till the chocolate drink gets a creamy frothy texture. 
  • Pour it into your favourite mugs. Garnish every mug or glass of hot chocolate drink with a cinnamon stick. You can also add marshmallows to get more creamy relish. Serve it with sweet bread or pastry and enjoy chilly nights. 

Notes

  • Adding milk will make your hot chocolate more delicious and rich in flavour. 
  • However, using water instead of chocolate makes this drink more energetic and has a pronounced chocolate flavour. 
  • Adjust the quantity of chocolate according to taste and brand because every brand has a different chocolate taste. 
  • Make sure to use milk at a moderate temperature. If milk gets boiled, cool it for a few minutes at room temperature. Then, continue frothing. Keep it again while frothing on heat but avoid boiling.
