With ginger, cardamom and pepper, this spiced chocolate mix is reminiscent of chai tea. Use it alone or to make a rich coffee drink, with or without spirits, or an exquisite fondue to serve with crisp plain cookies, fresh fruit or firm pieces of pound cake. Recipe by Crescent Dragonwagon, "Gifts from Your Kitchen," Relish the Holiday, November 2007.
