Throwback Thursday: Chocolate De Mexicanos

Chocolate De Mexicanos

Here is a really delicious hot chocolate drink for snuggling up on a really chilly night. I have made it as a great after ritual treat several times and if you love chocolate as much as I do, you'll love it , too!

All you need is:
4 1/2 cups of milk (or 2%)
4 ounces semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted
5 tablespoons sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. allspice
1 shot tequila
Cinnamon sticks (optional)

Place all ingredients, except for the tequila and cinnamon sticks, in a large sauce pan and bring to a boil. With a hand held mixer or traditional wooden beater, beat the mixture until it stops boiling and becomes slightly frothy. Stir in tequila. Serve immediately in mugs garnished with cinnamon sticks.
Of course, if preferred you can prepare without the alcohol.

  1. It does look awesome, but I'm afraid I would leave the tequila out.

  2. Since Himself is following a Keto Diet (and I'm tagging along so I don't have to be a short-order cook) I'll have to try this with coconut milk and stevia minus the tequila.
