1 cup whole milk

2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

2 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar, or more to taste

1 whole chile de arbol

3 cups brewed strong coffee

1 block bittersweet chocolate, for garnish, optional

Directions

  1. Combine the milk, chopped chocolate, sugar, and chile de arbol in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring until the chocolate melts and the sugar dissolves.

  2. Remove the chile before serving. Serve in tall glasses over ice. Grate chocolate on top, if desired.
