Maple hot chocolate

5 minutes. Makes 1 mug.

Warm milk takes the syrup in fast. A pinch of salt makes the chocolate taste deeper, and whisking at the end gives it a light foam.

You’ll need

• 250 ml (1 cup) milk, any kind
• 45 ml (3 tbsp) Cocoa House maple chocolate syrup
• A small pinch of salt
• Whipped cream to finish (optional)

Steps

1. Warm the milk in a small pot over medium-low heat until it steams, about 3 minutes. Do not let it boil.
2. Whisk in the syrup and salt.
3. Keep whisking for 30 seconds until the top is foamy.
4. Pour into a mug and add whipped cream if you like.

No stove? Warm the milk in a mug in the microwave for about 90 seconds, then stir in the syrup.
