How to make it

Build it step by step.

Language:
  1. 1Brew espresso.
  2. 2In a coffee mug, place 1 teaspoon of unsweetened powdered cocoa, then cover a teaspoon with honey and drizzle it into the cup.
  3. 3Stir while the coffee brews, this is the fun part.
  4. 4The cocoa seems to coat the honey without mixing, so you get a dusty, sticky mass that looks as though it will never mix.
  5. 5Then all at once, presto!
  6. 6It looks like dark chocolate sauce.
  7. 7Pour hot espresso over the honey, stirring to dissolve.
  8. 8Serve with cream.
