Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, mix the cocoa, sugar and pinch of salt with a little cold milk to make a smooth paste.
  2. Add the rest of the milk and the cinnamon stick, then heat over medium heat, stirring.
  3. Bring almost to the boil without letting it boil, about 8 minutes, whisking regularly.
  4. Remove the cinnamon stick, add the vanilla and whisk for another minute to make the drink frothy.
  5. Pour into warm cups and add a spoonful of cream if you like.

Variations and tips

Tsoko with coconut milk. Replace half the milk with coconut milk for a more exotic version.
