AZTEC CHILI HOT CHOCOLATE

I think this is off about.com, I don't remember, but it's lovely, and perfect for keeping warm. If I don't have chocolate, I use cocoa or hot chocolate instead of real chocolate. The chili chocolate mixture is also said to induce... romance!

MAYAN HOT CHOCOLATE



Mayan Hot Chocolate image

From Silk Soymilk, posted here for safe-keeping because I don't keep the cartons around after the soymilk's been drunk. Really good for a dessert drink after a Mexican feast or something a little less traditional to warm you up on a cold day! Want to make it cocktail party edition? Add a little creme de cacao, Baileys, and rum!
