Lord Bergamot Hot Chocolate

There's nothing quite like curling up with a warm cup of hot chocolate. This tea-infused version was crafted by our social media wizard, Nicole Lisson, who steeps her Lord Bergamot in whole milk before whipping up a cup of cocoa. 

(1 serving)

Ingredients

1 sachet Lord Bergamot or 2 tsp loose tea

1 cup whole milk

1 ounce of 75% dark chocolate

1 1/2 tablespoon of raw cocoa powder

1 teaspoon maple syrup

Directions:

  1. In a pot over medium-low heat, bring whole milk and Lord Bergamot tea to a slight simmer.
  2. Turn off heat and let stand for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Strain the infused milk mixture and pour back into the pot over medium-low heat.
  4. Add dark chocolate, cocoa powder, and maple syrup. Stir until chocolate is melted and everything is incorporated.
  5. Pour into your favorite mug and top with a dollop of whipped cream or marshmallows.
