Notes

  • Don’t cook in high flame.
  • Reduce cocoa powder as per the variety , else it may taste bitter.
  • The color depends on the variety of cocoa powder.
  • Good quality coco powder is one of the important factors to get perfect hot Cocoa.
  • I used Hersheys coco powder this time and am loving it for the color and flavour.
  • Hot Chocolate and Hot Cocoa are entirely different in taste and texture. Hot Chocolate is rich, creamy and slightly on the creamier side  wherewas hot coco is just like milk in consistency.
  • Hot Cocoa should be made and served immediately. Reheating will change the taste and flavour of the drink.
  • Adjust sweetness according to your taste.
  • You can even mix everything and microwave it for a minute.
  • If you like cinnamon flavour then add a pinch of it.
