Where I come from, we have this common delicacy that we call tea. When I say tea, you're probably thinking of the contents of a teabag infused in hot water.
But no, I actually mean hot cocoa, or hot chocolate drink. For some reason we refer to it as tea over here, and so we usually pair it with bread as it makes for a great complementary dish for breakfast; it's usually taken in the morning.

The basic way to make it is to mix in some cocoa powder, milk powder, and sugar for the sweet tooth gang. Mix those in hot water, and you're good to go. It's relatively easy to whip up, and you can typically get it done in under 2 minutes.
I got curious one day about the different ways to make hot chocolate, and boy, was I surprised. Apparently, you could start way from the beginning and harvest and roast the cocoa pods yourself; people do this!
Having gotten some inspiration, I decided to go out and experiment, come up with a recipe of my own.
Ingredients
A chocolate bar 45g
Evaporated Milk 59g
A teaspoon of Sugar (if you want)
40cl of Water
½ a teaspoon of cinnamon
Procedure
Place the chocolate bar, a teaspoon of sugar, 50 mL of evaporated milk, and a teaspoon of cinnamon into a pot.
Put on low heat and stir continuously till the chocolate bar is all melted. This might take anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes.
When it is all melted, transfer it into your cup, add half a cup of warm water, and stir. Add more water if it's too sugary until you are satisfied with the taste.
Then serve as a complimentary dish with any dish of your choice. I served mine with some pastries, a cake, and buns.
Quick and easy!

Hi @zitalove
When a recipe is published, ALL QUANTITIES of the ingredients used must be included, as well as the quantity or servings of food or drink obtained. We don't see that in your post.
Edit and include this data. By the way, a chocolate bar can have different weights, it clearly indicates how many grams that chocolate bar weighs.
Alright
Will do that shortly, thanks for the correction
The corrections have been effected.
Thank you once again🙏
Ok
