ORANGE WHITE HOT CHOCOLATE



Orange White Hot Chocolate image

This is a very favorite winter drink of mine. Sometimes, in my family, we will make this in the middle of summer when we're craving something sweet and comforting. It's got a gentle, yet smooth, taste to it and is sure to please anyone who loves white chocolate and orange. For myself, I make a soy milk version of this since I cannot handle dairy and I love it. Serve immediately and top with orange zest, marshmallows, or whipped cream if you wish.

Time 10m

Yield 10 glasses hot chocolate, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces premium white baking chocolate
8 cups nonfat milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
orange food coloring
whipped cream (for garnish)
chocolate nonpareils (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Coarsely chop the premium white chocolate, transfer to a medium-size heatproof bowl and set aside.
  • Heat milk in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat, until bubbles begin to form at edge of surface, about 4 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality chocolate: Use a good quality dark chocolate or a blend of dark and milk chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • Use fresh orange zest: Freshly grated orange zest provides the best flavor. Avoid using store-bought orange zest, as it can be bitter.
  • Add spices for extra flavor: Ground cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom can be added to the hot chocolate for a warm and cozy flavor.
  • Sweeten to taste: Adjust the amount of sugar or honey to your liking. You can also use a combination of sugar and honey for a more complex flavor.
  • Top with whipped cream or marshmallows: Whipped cream or marshmallows add a creamy and decadent touch to the hot chocolate.
  • Garnish with orange slices or zest: Orange slices or zest add a festive touch and enhance the citrus flavor.
