Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by placing your stone-ground Mexican chocolate in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.
- Remove the chocolate from the freezer and grate it using a medium holes cheese grater until you have about a cup of shavings.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the grated chocolate with honey or maple syrup, maca powder (if using), vanilla extract, almond extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Pour in your milk of choice, filling the shaker halfway.
- Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until well combined.
- Add ice cubes to the shaker and shake again for another 30 seconds to chill the drink.
- Pour the chilled mixture over a tall glass filled with ice. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or chocolate shavings.

Notes
For best flavor, prepare the drink fresh. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, or freeze in ice cube trays for up to 1 month.
