This delicious, warming and comforting hot chocolate has a lovely spicy hum from the cayenne pepper. You could use sweetened drinking chocolate – just omit the honey.

Ingredients (for two drinks): 

2 cups milk of choice
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp honey (or another sweetener)
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Method:

Put all ingredients into a saucepan and heat until the liquid almost reaches boiling point. Whisk until foamy and serve right away in your cup of choice.

Enjoy!
