To make  the perfect homemade hot chocolate, I  start with bittersweet, single origin chocolate mixed with some organic milk into a ganache and then topped with steamed milk.  For an added burst of flavour I add some chilies, ginger and cloves and use a cinnamon stick for garnish. For that smores memory, I add mini marshmallows and flame just before serving. FULL RECIPE BELOW.
