Ingredients

bone broth hot chocolate

  • ½ cup bone broth chicken is milder, beef is richer and usually has more collagen
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar honey, maple syrup, and brown sugar work too
  • pinch sea salt

optional

  • 1 scoop collagen peptides
  • 1 egg yolk

Instructions

  • Warm the broth and milk. Pour the bone broth and milk into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low until simmering.
  • Whip the base. Add heavy cream, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt (plus collagen peptides and egg yolk if using) to a coffee mug and whip with a fork or frother.
  • Serve warm. Pour the hot liquids over the whipped base in the mug and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use chicken bone broth for a milder flavor; beef broth creates a richer, deeper taste.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or cayenne for a Mexican hot chocolate twist.
  • For dairy-free, use coconut milk for extra creaminess.
  • Adjust sweetness to taste depending on broth saltiness.
  • If using salted broth, reduce added salt.
