How to Make Hot Orange Mocha With Grand Marnier Whipped Cream

  1. In a medium bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with 2 teaspoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of Grand Marnier until soft peaks form.
  2. Cover the whipped cream and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  3. Using a vegetable peeler, remove zest from 2 oranges in long strips. (Reserve the oranges for another use, such as juicing.)
  4. In a medium saucepan, combine the orange zest and 1 cup of whole milk.
  5. Heat over medium heat, bring just to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  6. Reduce heat to low. Add 4 ounces of chopped bittersweet chocolate, 1 tablespoon espresso powder, and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder.
  7. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  8. Strain the mocha through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any orange zest pieces.
  9. Ladle the hot mocha into four mugs.
  10. Top each mug generously with the chilled Grand Marnier whipped cream.
