Chili Hot Chocolate
BackDESCRIPTION OF THE DISH
The recipe of chili hot chocolate was invented by the Aztecs. A hot mixture of milk, cocoa powder and chili pepper is perfect for boosting your energy. At the end of a hard day, treat yourself to a cup of hot chocolate with a pinch of chili pepper. A hot spice will stimulate your brain as well as your whole body: fatigue will go down while good mood and liveliness will return to you!
Don’t be afraid of hot chili pepper in your drink. Milk and sugar will soften its hotness, making your hot chocolate taste rich and smooth.
A punch of chili pepper in your hot chocolate is also a good energy boost for the immune system since this kind of pepper contains twice as much vitamin C as lemon. Serve the spicy drink with marshmallow or whipped cream or add a bit of cinnamon to make a true feast for your eyes and taste buds!
