Creamy, rich, and cozy, this Mexican Hot Chocolate is warmly spiced with a hint of cinnamon and cayenne powder, so it’ll warm you from the inside out! Made with real chocolate, this drink is beyond flavorful. I grew up making this type of hot chocolate with my mom and I'm so excited to share it with you!

I am Mexican and loved your recipe! I feel especially grateful that you mentioned the molinillo, piloncillo and champurrado, exalting the roots of our culinary culture. Totally correct to mention the Chocolate Abuelita, wich is the tradicional ingredient we use for this beverage. You have a very complete channel that reflects love and respect for gastronomy, that's so valuable! Congratulations and feliz año nuevo 2023! Mucho éxito!

Estaba a punto de comentar algo similar y me ganaste 🤭 De hecho yo prefiero usar Chocolate Ibarra porque ese tiene canela y el Chocolate Abuelita no. Cualquiera de los 2 es el que muchas familias usamos pero vaya que sí quiero intentar esta receta 👩🏻‍🍳 Thank you, John, for your wonderful recipes, and for sharing a little bit of our culture through them 💜 As a Mexican, I approve this recipe 😁👍🏼 Blessings and my best wishes to you and your loved ones for 2023 ✨️

@TheBLGL Жыл бұрын

@@KyuubiCatT They use masa harina to thicken it, and that’s the basis of atole, it wouldn’t work with corn starch/flour. And they also use piloncillo (the raw sugar cone he talked about). Here in New Mexico, atole is made with blue corn masa harina.

In the Philippines, we call your molinillo "batirol". They don't look the same in that molinillo has a more intricate design than the batirol. We also use it to mix the tsokolate or hot chocolate. We also have a "champorado", but it is different from the Mexican champurrado.

I will buy this next week when I get paid. Lastly, can you add a bit of instant coffee to this? I ask because growing up in SoCal, most Mexican Hot Chocolate we had included coffee. Some vendors call it "Mayan Coffee". (This is also for other folks in the comment section to respond to because if you know, you know.) ❤
