Instructions
- Make a strong black coffee, about 400 ml, using a coffee maker or a moka pot.
- Break the chocolate into pieces and melt it in a bain-marie, or in short bursts in the microwave, until you have a smooth cream.
- In a saucepan, heat the milk with the cinnamon stick over low heat for 5 minutes, without letting it boil.
- Remove the cinnamon, then whisk the melted chocolate into the milk to avoid lumps.
- Add the hot coffee and the sugar, then whisk until the drink is frothy and smooth.
- Pour into four preheated cups and serve straight away, with a dry biscuit on the side.
Variations and tips
Iced version. Let the drink cool, pour it over ice cubes and add a spoonful of single cream.
Orange flavour. Add a grated strip of orange zest while heating the milk for a fruity note.
