We love a delicious hot chocolate around these parts and time and time again we love to whip out our favourite hot chocolate recipe and come up with all sorts of delicious combinations. Today we’re warming the cockles of your heart with this delicious bourbon mocha.

While our hot chocolate sits as the foundation for this decadent cocktail, the addition of our favourite cold drip coffee liqueur adds that mocha flavour, while bourbon gives it a little something extra.

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 60ml golden bourbon
  • 10ml Mr Black coffee liqueur
  • Whipped cream
  • Shaved chocolate

Method:

In an ovenproof bowl over a saucepan of water, melt chocolate chips with milk and vanilla bean paste, whisking to remove lumps and create a smooth liquid consistency.

Take off the stove and add golden bourbon and coffee liqueur

Pour into your favourite mug.

Top with whipped cream and shaved chocolate.
