Ingredients:

Cocosutra Hot Chocolate Mix - 20g, 1 serving (any flavor of your choice)
Milk - 180 ml (dairy or plant-based options like almond, soy, or oat milk)
Ice cubes
Optional toppings: whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Hot Chocolate Mix

In a small saucepan, stir 2 tablespoons (20 g) of Cocosutra Hot Chocolate Mix to a 80ml of milk of choice. Stir to form a smooth paste. Heat for 1 minute.

Step 2: Cool Down the Hot Chocolate

Once the mixture is smooth, remove it from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature. You can speed this up by placing the mixture in the fridge for 5-10 minutes.

Step 3: Assemble the Drink

Fill a glass with ice cubes. Pour the chilled hot chocolate mixture over the ice, then top it off with an additional 100 ml of cold milk. Stir gently to mix the flavors.

Step 4: Add Toppings (Optional)

To make it even more indulgent, top the drink with a dollop of whipped cream, sprinkle chocolate shavings, or drizzle chocolate syrup over the top.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve this refreshing Hot Chocolate on the Rocks in a tall glass with a straw for a chic, café-style experience. It’s perfect for enjoying during warm weather or as a fun twist on your favorite hot drink. You can also customize it by adding a shot of espresso for an iced mocha version or flavor it with cinnamon or vanilla extract for an extra kick.
