70g raw cane sugar

300 ml hot water

150 ml Black Cow Vodka

Method

Roughly chop the cacao or chocolate into a saucepan and add freshly boiled water and sugar.

On a medium heat, bring it back so it is just on the point of boiling, whisking to get a froth.

Remove from the heat and pour in the vodka, whisking briefly.

Pour into your cups, dust with grated chocolate, and serve
