rum orange hot cocoa recipe
This recipe is particularly handy in its easy-to-remember ratio of ingredients – one cup of milk plus one tablespoon of each of the rest of the ingredients (aside from the salt, which is added with a pinch). Of course you can scale any of the ingredients to your liking, and you can easily switch out the rum and orange liqueur for other items in your home bar. Or nothing from your home bar – this makes a lovely, fast hot cocoa without the booze.

Rum-Orange Hot Chocolate


  • Author: Bowen Close
  • Yield: 1 1x

Description

On a cold evening, this beverage satisfies in sweetness, warmth, and booze. Try with any liqueurs you have on hand or with no alcohol at all.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk (the closer to whole milk, the better)
  • 1 Tbsp. cocoa powder (preferably Dutched)
  • 1 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 Tbsp. dark (not spiced) rum
  • 1 Tbsp. orange liqueur (e.g. Citronge, Cointreau)
  • Marshmallows or whipped cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. Whisk together milk, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt in a small pot over medium heat. It may take a bit of whisking to incorporate the cocoa, which wants to float on top of the milk.
  2. Heat, whisking occasionally and making sure to scrape along the bottom of the pot, until the mixture is steaming.
  3. Turn off the heat.
  4. Stir in the rum and orange liqueur.
  5. Pour into mugs and add marshmallows or whipped cream, as desired.
