  6. Gently heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through (do not boil).
  7. In the blender, combine the warmed chocolate coffee mixture with 1 cup of half-and-half (1/2 cup whipping cream and 1/2 cup skim milk).
  8. Blend until frothy and creamy (about 1 minute).
  9. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a serving pitcher.
  10. Discard the solids.
