Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Chocolate

Start by breaking your Lipem chocolate bar into small pieces. This helps it melt more quickly and evenly.

If you prefer a stronger flavor, go with Lipem dark chocolate; if you want a creamier texture, milk or white chocolate will do the trick.

2. Heat the Milk

In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it’s steaming but not boiling.

  • Stir occasionally to prevent it from burning.
  • If you’re using plant-based milk, keep the temperature on the lower side, as some can curdle when overheated.

3. Add the Chocolate

Once the milk is hot, slowly add the pieces of Lipem chocolate, stirring constantly.

Allow the chocolate to fully melt and blend with the milk, creating a smooth, velvety texture.

4. Sweeten (If Necessary)

Taste your mixture. If you’re using dark chocolate or prefer a sweeter hot chocolate, you can add 1 tablespoon of sugar or honey to balance the flavors.

Stir well until the sugar dissolves.

5. Add a Pinch of Salt

A small pinch of salt goes a long way in enhancing the richness of the chocolate.

It might seem unusual, but it brings out the flavor even more without making the drink salty.

6. Optional Flavors

For extra indulgence, you can stir in a splash of vanilla extract or sprinkle some cinnamon for warmth.

If you want a festive twist, add a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of peppermint extract.

7. Serve with Toppings

Pour the hot chocolate into a mug and top with your favorite extras. Whipped cream, marshmallows, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder will elevate your Lipem hot chocolate to the next level.
