Sicilian Hot Chocolate Drink
When it’s intensely cold like now I always think of having a hot chocolate drink. I thought winter this time would be mild and dry but I didn’t count on the coldest month to be always the coldest month, lol! I have known that February is the month when winter is the most cruel here. Snow is fine but when the temperature drops to -11°C like this morning I don’t feel like working at all. My hands really froze after scraping snow off my car. It’s first time for me to be driving the car in winter. Anyhow, I’m home now and guess what I am thinking…
The hot chocolate drink I had at Baia Verde bar in Catania, Sicily
This hot chocolate was so creamy, I could just eat it, not drink. It’s so different from the hot choco drink I usually have in a café here, which is almost the same as what my Tassimo can make. But this thick choco drink is a real energy booster to me. I wonder how to make this – perhaps melt a block of chocolate in a pan and add some milk, or is it just cacao powder mixed in a hot milk. I’ll make an experiment.

Hahaa! I hope you’re not drinking HOT and Chocolate at the same time.
Ohh wow it looks amazing. I would love to try out a different hot coco. I love the stuff.
Be sure to make it creamy, though, to experience the difference. Lol!
Nothing is as satisfying and comforting as hot chocolate. These recipes are priceless. Can’t wait to whip some up. It may snow tomorrow…the perfect weather for making your recipe.
Cheers.
Oh, sure, it’s just cacao, milk and cream, I think. Will try one later.
Ah there is truly nothing like a nice hot chocolate in cold weather. I too would love to be able to make it for myself if I knew the recipe lol.

But we can experiment, lol. It’s not that hard if you have all the ingredients, especially cacao powder.
