Chocolate is divine for me. Everyday, I nourish  a ‘Bounty pack’ after breakfast or lunch… it makes me feel good…

Sometimes, making a chocolate drink pops up into mind so I tried this recipe which is well-balanced to my own preference: sweet, sour and salty.

When we were in Mallorca, Spain on November 2012, we tasted the best chocolate drink according to our tour guide. I enjoyed slurping and savoring the cup of chocolate. The weather’s chilly and cold that sipping a hot drink enlivens  my bones and muscles…

Here at home… I have thought of this wonderful mixture (:)

Slice part of the fresh lemon fruit and squeeze into the chocolate drink. Stir and savor!

 

Before you prepare your chocolate drink, you need hot water. Place some chocolate blocks or chocolate powder into your cup and pour some hot water. Stir until the chocolate is perfectly mixed smoothly together.

then add into your chocolate mixtures —

1)   2 or 3 small pieces of  the preserved dried orange peel into the chocolate

or

2)  fill your chocolate drink with some fresh lemon zest and squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice .

Let stand for at least few minutes.

Sip and savor the chocolate drink. Feel; experience the difference 🙂

Have a great tea time (:) with thanks.
