It was a cold and snowy day yesterday and I was craving something cozy that felt like a hug. Earlier this week, I saw online a coffee house was serving earl grey hot chocolate and it sounded so delicious and I could not stop thinking about it. So I decided to try and make my own, how hard could it be?

I used dark chocolate with sea salt and the result was a rich, floraly, decadent sip that just feels so fancy and elevated. Sharing my recipe below.
