How to Make Orange Cocoa
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until well combined.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of water until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, whisking constantly to prevent scorching.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes, continuing to stir.
- Stir in 2 cups of milk (dairy or non-dairy) and the zest of 1 orange. Heat gently until warmed through, about 3-5 minutes. Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Pour into mugs and enjoy immediately. Garnish with extra orange zest or a mini marshmallow, if desired.
