Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup beef bone broth low-sodium
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 oz bittersweet chocolate finely chopped
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. In a small saucepan, whisk the cocoa powder and maple syrup with 2 tablespoons of the bone broth until smooth.
  2. Whisk in the remaining bone broth and the milk.
  3. Heat over medium-low heat for 4 to 6 minutes, whisking occasionally, until steaming but not boiling.
  4. Add the chopped chocolate and whisk until melted.
  5. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Divide between two mugs and serve hot.

Notes

Whisk the cocoa and maple syrup with a little broth until completely smooth before adding the milk to help prevent lumps. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days and reheat gently; freezing is not recommended because the milk may separate. For a lactose-free option, use lactose-free whole milk.
