We love the addition of cinnamon and cayenne in this Mexican version, meant for true spice-lovers.
Ingredients
  • 2½ c. whole milk
  • ½ tsp. ground cinnamon, plus more for garnish
  • Pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 6 oz. semisweet chocolate, chopped, plus more for garnish
  • ½ tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch kosher salt
  • Marshmallows, for serving
Instructions
  1. In a small sauce pan over medium heat, whisk to combine milk, cinnamon, and cayenne if using. Heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbles begin to appear where the milk meets the pan.
  2. Remove pan from heat and whisk in chocolate, vanilla, and salt until chocolate is melted.
  3. Divide into mugs and top with marshmallows, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and chopped chocolate before serving.
