'IBARRA' HOT CHOCOLATE LOVERS!
I love to make this mexican chocolate mixed with warmed milk then frothed with a molinillo for myself and my guests. We drink it for breakfast or after dinner and it is usually accompanied by a piece of Mexican sweet bread or cookies. Buen Provecho! :)

MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE
Mexican chocolate is available at Mexican markets, some grocery stores and always online. Often you will find it under the brand name Ibarra, in a distinct yellow- and red-striped, hexagon-shaped box. Ibarra chocolate comes in both dark chocolate and in ''new'' flavorings - mixed with sugar cane, cinnamon and finely ground almonds. Get the former and follow the lead of our recipe's source, Rick Bayless, the great American interpreter of Mexican cuisine.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, simmer the milk and chocolate for a few minutes, stirring constantly to dissolve the chocolate.
- Either pour into a pitcher and beat well with a Mexican molinillo (chocolate beater), a whisk or an electric mixer, or pour into a blender, cover loosely and blend until thoroughly mixed. Either way, you should wind up with a nicely frothy drink. Serve immediately.
