4 Ways to Make Hot Chocolate - from easy to elevated | VERTE CHAUD
Welcome to the Hot Chocolate Lab. Today we're going through an evolution of hot chocolate... from the hot milk and Hershey's syrup, to homemade cocoa mix, to drinking chocolate, to Verte Chaud. And it's all delicious. Make sure to hit the chapters for Cocoa vs Syrup vs Melting Chocolate, and then finally, Hot Chocolate Flambé. Because spiked hot chocolate should also be flaming hot chocolate! Verte Chaud is a hot chocolate cocktail that hits all the right spots. The minty herbal quality of Green Chartreuse blends beautifully with the rich hot chocolate. But if you want to REALLY impress your guests, try setting this cocktail on fire! The alcohol content of the Chartreuse is high enough that you can do a table-side flambe... just make sure you leave enough room in the glass for the extra shot of liquid. (trust me on this- I set my entire table on fire more than once. LOL!)
