verte chaud recipe

I’ve been dreaming of a chartreuse and hot chocolate recipe for YEARS.

This hot chocolate recipe comes from @sadd_papi, one of my favorite food creators since 2020. About the only small addition I make is some clove in the hot cocoa, and some vanilla in the cream.

And, of course, the addition of everyone’s favorite herbaceous green liqueur. I love how the clove enhances the savory botanical notes of the green chartreuse.


Ingredients

1.5oz green chartreuse

5-6oz hot chocolate (recipe below)

Topped with vanilla whip (recipe below)

Garnish: shaved nutmeg and cinnamon

Directions

Combine chartreuse with hot chocolate in your favorite mug. Garnish with vanilla whipped cream and shaved nutmeg & cinnamon.
