How do you make hot chocolate?

I boil milk and add real galaxy chocolate and cocoa powder I don't bother with the shop bought mix, I serve with squirty cream and marshmallow.

Micro mug of milk for 2m15s. Stir in heaped teasp of chocolate powder. Mine is from Aldi. Bliss.

I used to buy a tin of 'Spanish Style Hot Chocolate' from M & S - the tin was a beautiful work of art! If I remember correctly you mixed it with hot milk and it was super thick and rich, more like a chocolate sauce really, lovely for a treat but far too many calories for an everyday drink. I did achieve almost the same results with cocoa powder, brown sugar and cornflour to thicken it.

Though I love chocolate, I don’t like any sweet drinks, so have cocoa without sugar. Making it with real chocolate sounds tempting, but more calories than my cocoa. I’ve been known to dip a piece of chocolate into my cup of black coffee though.

Does anyone make the Mexican style hot chocolate?
The water based one?
If so, do you use the discs - and where do you find them please?

Also interested in the version from the Phillipines...

I mix cocoa with hot chocolate in a jar, I fing the instant hot chocolate alone is too sweet, I heat the milk in the microwave and add my mix, lovely
