Hot Chocolate Recipe
I'm cross-posting again. Because I like posting recipes.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon Bournville Cocoa
1 teaspoon drinking chocolate
1 pinch mixed spice (nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice)
1/4 pinch ground cloves
1/4 pinch ground ginger
ground chillies (optional)
1/2 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon Bickford's chocolate milkshake mix
Boiling water
Hot Milk (or hot soy milk, for an extra nutty flavour)
Method:
Mix dry ingredients together in a cup. Using a little boiling water, dissolve the dry ingredients and honey. Add the milkshake mix. Add the milk.
Drink.
Improvements may be able to be made to the method. If I wasn't so worried about breaking my father's espresso makers, I might try dissolving the dry ingredients in one, which would strain out the bits. For a larger amount of people, larger (non-ground) pieces of the spices dissolved with the hot chocolate powders in a coffee plunger may work to strain the spices out, too.
