Ancient Hot Chocolate

It's October, soon it will be November, and the months will continue to change and so will the seasons, from Fall to Winter. It will start to get colder and more people will enjoy in the cold, and end up with a cold. So this is why we will make Ancient Hot Chocolate! 

Food Facts: When you buy hot chocolate at a vendor or a store, you may not know how much sugar is contained in it, it's fine if you have it once in a while, but drinking it usually doesn't seem so healthy. It can contain hundreds of calories and day by day you can get less healthier, and that can cause Diabetes, and we want to stay away from that! This is exactly why we will make homemade hot chocolate, it will have less sugar, it will be tastier! Let start with the recipe!

What you will need

• Four ounces of unsweetened chocolate ( depending on number of people )
• One teaspoon of chili powder
• 2 1/2 cup milk
• One cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• Two tablespoon sugar

What You'll Need To Do

1. First, break all the chocolate into small pieces and put it to the side.
2. Then in a small pot, heat water on the stove and wait until it boils. Keep chili powder in once it is boiling, whisk until it is properly mixed. Then, set aside to cool.
3. In another small pot, slowly heat the milk and add vanilla and cinnamon, and stir until it is properly mixed.
4. Remove the saucepan containing the milk from the stove add the chocolate and sugar and whisk until everything is mixed. Then put the pot back on the stove. Wait for the chocolate to melt and mix gradually.
5. Then, slowly add the chili water into the milk mixture.
6. Wait until everything is mixed and remove the pot off the stove.
7. Serve warm.

And.....ENJOY!!

Ancient hot chocolate is tasty yet healthy, the blend of cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate, sugar, and chili powder really give the drink an unique taste, which make your throat feel much better in the cold. You can keep marshmallows or a side of unsweetened chocolate for fun, but I do not recommend you to keep it all the time because it is unhealthy, but the hot chocolate is perfect for cold days. This is why this week's topic was hot chocolate!
      
Tip of the Week
Whenever you are sick, and you want ice- cream really badly, you should think that you will just be making your cold worse. It is also unhealthy because having something cold in the cold, doesn't sound like a good idea. It can cause you to be sick. 
For example, you can have hot chocolate in Fall or Winter and Popsicles in late Spring and Summer. It is a healthy choice to make. So keep eating healthy and be sure to drink this magnificent hot chocolate!
