Earl grey hot chocolate
This hot chocolate recipe is inspired by a short stint working as a larder chef almost 10 years ago. I had never before had a hot chocolate as decadent as that which we served, and come to think of it, I don’t think I have ever had one as decadent since. Suffice to say that my version is not as indulgent, but I think that the addition of the earl grey tea makes it just as good!
Ingredients
Serves 2
- --
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 1 ½ tsp earl grey tea
- 6 square of dark chocolate, or to taste
Method
- --
- 1. Combine the milk and tea in a saucepan and gently heat without boiling. Continue heating for approximately 10 minutes. The milk will take on a light tea colour.
- 2. Place 3 (or more if desired) squares of chocolate into a heatproof glass. Pour the milk over the chocolate using a tea strainer/colander to strain off the leaves. Serve.

I made this last night and it was so good! The earl grey tea gives it a woodsy richness. Am craving another right now!

Hi Sasha,
Thanks for your message. You will have to let us know what you think of the earl grey hot chocolate once you have made it – It think it is the perfect flavour combination and makes a delicious rainy day afternoon drink by the fire.
Happy cooking and a Happy 2012!

As Cpt. Picard (a devotee of Earl Gray tea) would say, “Make it so!”
