Tart Cherry Hot Chocolate

Ingredients

 

1 1/2 cups	light coconut milk*	375 mL
2 tbsp	Montmorency tart cherry concentrate	30 mL
1 tbsp	unsweetened cocoa powder	15 mL
1 oz	chopped dark chocolate	30 g
1 tbsp	honey or agave	15 mL
1/2 tsp	vanilla extract	3 mL
pinch	sea salt

tip

* Use coconut milk from a can. Other milks can be used if preferred. If choosing nut milk, use unsweetened since you’re adding sweetener and the tart cherry concentrate is a bit sweet as well.

Directions

1. Combine all the ingredients in a small sauce pot over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
2. Whisk until chocolate is melted and mixture is heated through.
3. Pour into mugs and garnish with cocoa powder, cacao nibs and/or marshmallows.
