How to Make Orange Spiced Mexican Chocolate
- In a large saucepan, combine 2 cups of water and 2 cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in 4 cups of whole milk and the zest of 1 large orange.
- Continue to heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is steaming but not boiling.
- Remove from heat and add 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of Mexican chocolate (such as Ibarra). Whisk vigorously until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Serve immediately in mugs. For an adult beverage, add 1-2 tablespoons of Cointreau or your preferred orange liqueur per mug, if desired.
