My favourite hot drink is hot chocolate. It's a strong love, really. It's as bad as having been to every café around my home to see which does the best hot chocolate.
So when I found this 100% cacao bar in M&S I was excited to try it. And try it I did! By the way, cacao is simply raw cocoa before it's been turned into chocolate. It's as raw as you can get with cocoa. Raw means the food hasn't been heated above 42 degrees C. So all it's antioxidants are still retained.
The best hot chocolate is one made on the hob! on a gas cooker with some kind of milk. My preference is soy milk.
I heat some milk in a saucepan, add two bars of the cacao to the pan and let it melt. Whisk and mix thoroughly and serve. Sprinkle with cinnamon and/or nutmeg as you wish. I use both.
For some reason, this is my pick me up drink when I need some cheering up. It has some magic in it. Maybe it's those antioxidants :)
