Richard Sterling developed this recipe, which is his version of how the Spaniards transformed Montezuma’s favorite beverage, with the addition of alcohol. He commented: "Salud! Drink to the Old World and the New."

Ingredients


  • 12 ounces prepared hot chocolate (not too sweet)

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 jiggers pepper vodka

  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

  • Cayenne powder and cinnamon sticks for garnish

  • Grated chocolate and dried red chiles for garnish (optional)



Instructions


Combine the chocolate, honey, vanilla and vodka in a small pitcher. Pour into two long stemmed glasses or Irish coffee glasses. Float the cream on the tops of the two drinks. Dust with a pinch of Cayenne pepper and garnish with cinnamon sticks, or dust with grated chocolate and garnish with dried red chiles. Cut them lengthwise and fix them to the edges of the glasses.
