In case anyone's making hot cocoa this winter, please follow the correct protocol:
Heat a cup milk on the stove until it's steaming. In the meantime, mix 2 tbsp of honey or maple syrup with a tablespoon of cocoa powder until it's smooth. Slowly mix in the hot milk.
Perfectly smooth and rich hot cocoa. Save money, drink healthy. Add some spices to the cocoa powder if you want. Use raw milk if you can get it.

Mixing the cocoa with honey before adding to the milk is genius. Probably don't have to deal with the hydrophobic problem
This was the breakthrough that launched my career.
I have both local honey and local maple syrup on hand. 👍
This is good content
Freeze dried mushroom powder of your species of choice is also a good addition 🍄🍄🟫
Do you sell such goods? I'd try some.
I do! I have a lot of cool new chocolate products coming out, like these chocolate covered freeze dried truffles. I also make extract infused gummies and honey. I am about to infuse some of nostr:npub1sweetl0gskmka0n5qevt7v2wj9q56ntwkmaeywffw4ftaucmcakquhns6h blueberry syrup as well. 
Kiddo curdled the milk yesterday by making hot cocoa incorrectly 🤦♀️
I hate it when that happens. Usually because my milk has gotten a bit old.
Looks like I've been following the shitcoin protocol, where you dump the 7/11 brand stuff into a cup of warm water and put it in the microwave for 2 minutes.
Yeah, maybe don't do that anymore 😂
Yum! That hot cocoa recipe sounds amazing! Can’t wait to try it out this winter. Love the idea of adding spices too. Thanks for sharing this cozy tip! ☕️❄️ #HotCocoaLove
Gonna try that asap after getting back home, it's -15'C there now and I'm not ready fot that😅
The honey / maple syrup is completely unnecessary. Milk is already sweet; it contains its own sugar (lactose).
You seem like a guy who knows what’s up. I’ll be following this guide
Currently enjoying hot cocoa prepared using your recipe.
It's fantastic.
In my case, I used maple syrup as I was out of honey. I also added a pinch of salt to it.
Thanks for sharing!
I'm glad you like it!
Will definitely be making it again.
I might decrease the syrup, but that's just a matter of personal preference. The simplicity and ease of the recipe, and the smooth and creamy quality of the end result is what really makes this recipe a gem.
For an extra layer of indulgence, melt a square of dark chocolate into the steaming milk before combining it with the cocoa mixture. Or, try whisking in a tiny pinch of sea salt—it enhances the sweetness and brings out the chocolate flavor beautifully. Want something aromatic? Infuse the milk with a cinnamon stick or a hint of orange peel while heating. Your cup of cocoa will taste like pure winter magic.
Mmm good tips 🙏
Sounds intriguing; I want to try. I just prepared a whole bunch of (yes, raw!) milk to become yogurt and the hot milk smell had me wishing for hot chocolate something fierce! I didn’t give in, but maybe tomorrow I’ll do this with some of the milk that’s left.
Try it out! You won't regret it 😁
