The Hot Chocolate Del Diablo beverage is a refreshing twist on the popular warm chocolatey milk drink that adds peppery tequila for an added kick. The literally hot, hot chocolate is the ideal drink to warm up with on a cold day.
Hot chocolates are a super sweet drink that might remind most of their childhood with the rich aromatic notes of cocoa paired with warm milk. This adult version adds a few shots of Patron XO Cafe Incendio infused with Criollo chocolate notes and spicy Mexican arbol chile. To that whole milk, bittersweet chocolate, cocoa powder, cinnamon, vanilla and cocoa are added to further enhance the chocolate and spicy notes of the liquor. The heat of the drink as well as the spice really works to warm you up along with the healthy dose of tequila.
