Boozy Malty Creamy Hot Chocolate

Ingredients:

2 tbsp Ovaltine
1 shot Knob Creek bourbon
2/3 cup whole milk
1 oz dark chocolate
1 tbsp cocoa powder plus extra for dusting
Pinch of vanilla sea salt
Dollop of whipped heavy cream
Ground cinnamon for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Place the Ovaltine and bourbon in a heatproof cup and stir slightly so you have a paste.
  2. Warm the milk with the dark chocolate, cocoa powder and vanilla sea salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Using a small whisk, stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture looks even and starts to steam.
  3. Once it looks molten, pour a little into the glass with the Ovaltine and bourbon, stir and then pour in the remainder of the hot chocolate mixture.
  4. Scoop a dollop of whipped cream on top and dust with cocoa powder and some cinnamon. Drink up!!
