Recipe
Iced chocolate and milkshake recipe
Ingredients + equipment (makes 1 medium drink):
- 34% Milk hot chocolate flakes
- 200ml of dairy or plant-based milk
- A lime
- Sea salt
- A chocolate shaker
- Ice cubes
- 3-5 small scoops of soft scoop ice cream (for milkshakes)
- A glass
Instructions:
Start by making a small hot chocolate. Add milk up to level 2 in your shaker (about 100ml), then add 5 teaspoons of 34% Milk chocolate flakes.
Put the shaker in the microwave (without the lid) for half a minute. Or, you can heat your milk on the hob and add it to the flakes in the shaker.
Put the lid on the shaker, making sure the top is pressed down, and then secure the lid fully. Shake for 10 seconds or until all the flakes melt.
Zest and add around 1/3 of the lime. (We recommend giving your lime a quick soak in hot water followed by a scrub with a vegetable brush to get rid of any wax and impurities before zesting. And make sure not to zest too deep, just use the top of the skin.)
Add a pinch of sea salt, then top up with cold milk.
For iced chocolates - Add some ice cubes to your shaker, give your drink another quick shake, then pour and enjoy.
For milkshakes - Add 3 small scoops of ice cream, shake and then taste. You can add more ice cream depending on your taste preferences. Make sure to add small scoops or teaspoons of ice cream so that it melts properly.
Give your drink another quick shake, then pour and enjoy your lime chocolate milkshake.
Heat200ml (about one large mug) of milk in a saucepan on the hob, or in a large mug in the microwave. Make sure it doesn’t boil as this will affect the taste.
Add around 8 teaspoons of 34% Milk hot chocolate flakes. You can experiment with the quantity of flakes based on your taste.
Zest and add around 1/3 of the lime. (We recommend giving your lime a quick soak in hot water followed by a scrub with a vegetable brush to get rid of any wax and impurities before zesting. And make sure not to zest too deep, just use the top of the skin.)
Add a pinch of sea salt.
Stir until your flakes have fully melted.
Pour into your favourite mug and enjoy your lime hot chocolate.
