Whisky Hot Chocolate

Coming in from the cold and a stroll in the snow, this decadently thick and creamy Whisky Hot Chocolate is an indulgent and slightly tipsy way to warm up! Happy Friday!

Ingredients (serves 1):

1 1/2 cup semi-skimmed milk

1 teaspoon Homemade Vanilla Extract (made with Whisky)

60 grams/2 ounces good quality dark chocolate (at least 62% cocoa)

1/2 tablespoon caster sugar

1 teaspoon Dutch-processed unsweetened cocoa powder

3 tablespoons 10 Years Peated Bowmore Single Malt Whisky

In a small saucepan, combine milk and Vanilla Extract. Bring to a simmer over a medium flame.

Roughly chop dark chocolate, and spoon into a medium bowl. Add sugar and cocoa. Once the milk is simmering, pour it over the chocolate. Let stand, a minute or two; then whisk until well-blended and return to the saucepan over medium heat.

Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens slightly.

Once just thick and frothy, stir in Whisky and immediately remove from the heat.

Pour Whisky Hot Chocolate in your favourite mug, and enjoy immediately!

Islay Distilleries

My top whiskies of 2024

I have, more than once, considered writing a sort of summary of my year in whisky. I routinely fail to do so for one reason or another. This year, my friend over at Whiskey One put together a nice list of his favorite whiskies for the year, finally inspiring me to do the same. I think one of the biggest reasons I’ve failed to do anything like this in the past is that I’ve over-complicated the…
