How do you like your hot chocolate? Whatever your preference, be it kicked up with a shot of your favorite liqueur or thick and decadent, at least one of the 60 recipes in Michael Turback's Hot Chocolate will suit your tastes perfectly. This single-subject volume is comprehensive in its coverage of drinkable chocolates and, rather than simply listing variations on one basic recipe, it covers all the major trends in the genre: European chocolates, modern "haute" chocolates, adult/spiked hot chocolates and "second childhood" hot chocolates. Following the recipes, he even includes a brief selection of recipes to pair with the drinks. The part of the book that chocolate lovers might find to be the most interesting is the introduction, where Turback discusses the types and uses of chocolates, spices, sweeteners and everything else that goes into making a great cup of cocoa. This information sets the reader up beautifully to explore new flavor combinations on top of those included by the author. If you're looking for a specifically Christmas drink, Eggnog Hot Chocolate is one recipe from this book that is worth a look. Other tempting drinks include Hot Butterscotch with White Chocolate, Key Lime Pie Hot Chocolate, Roasted Hazelnut Hot Chocolate and Matcha Hot Chocolate.Hot Chocolate, Cookbook of the Day
