Earl Grey Hot Chocolate

This Earl Grey Hot Chocolate is in a word, decadent. Based off my hot chocolate recipe, adding Earl Grey gives it a lovely twist to an old favorite.

You may think you’ve had really good hot chocolate but I’m sorry to be the one to break it to you, but this is actually the very best.

The most ridiculously delicious hot chocolates I’ve had were both in Paris. One was at Angelina where I had their famous African Hot Chocolate and the other was at Hotel du Louvre where they served mini cups of the liquid diabetes for breakfast every morning.

Ingredients
Earl Grey Hot Chocolate

• 1 cup milk (any kind)
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 5 oz. dark chocolate, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Earl Grey loose tea or 2 Earl Grey tea bags
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Optional: shaved chocolate

Cream Topping

• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar

Instructions

1. In a saucepan, heat milk and heavy cream on low-medium heat until bubbles form along the sides of the pan. Turn heat off and add in Earl Grey tea and let it steep for 10 minutes then discard tea leaves. (Put tea in filter bags for easy steeping.)
2. Turn heat on low and stir in finely chopped chocolate into Earl Grey milk until chocolate has completely melted.
3. To make the cream topping, combine sugar and heavy cream and whip using an immersion blender or hand whisk until cream thickens but before soft peaks form.
4. Pour hot chocolate into two mugs and top with cream topping. Add a little shaved chocolate to top of cream, if desired.
