For a richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate instead of cocoa powder. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Some prefer a slightly less sweet hot chocolate. A pinch of cayenne pepper can add a delightful kick to this recipe. Start with a very small amount and adjust to taste. Garnish with whipped cream, a dusting of cocoa powder, or a cinnamon stick for an elegant presentation. For a vegan version, use your favorite plant-based milk and ensure your vanilla extract is vegan-friendly.

01 Step
Recipe View In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cold water, sugar, cocoa powder, flour, cinnamon, cloves, and salt until completely smooth, ensuring no lumps remain. (2 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Place the saucepan over low heat. Continuously whisk the mixture, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens slightly and is heated through. (approximately 4 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Gradually stir in the milk, ensuring it's fully incorporated into the chocolate mixture. Heat gently until the hot chocolate is hot, but do not allow it to boil. You should see small bubbles forming around the edges of the pan. (approximately 5 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. (1 minute)
05 Step
Recipe View For an extra-smooth and frothy texture, use an immersion blender to blend the hot chocolate directly in the saucepan for about 30 seconds. Be careful not to splash! Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the hot chocolate to a regular blender. Blend until smooth and frothy. (1 minute)
