Grasshopper hot chocolate


Grasshopper is what usually desserts containing both chocolate and mint are called :). Personally, I always loved the combination - in ice-creams, after-eights and so on.
Stay tuned for our grasshopper brownies and our after-eight dessert cream which we'll post soon if you're a fan of mint and chocolate!
Meanwhile, enjoy your hot drink. :)


Last year: Beefsteak with spicy butter and wedges, Lemon panacota with orange caramel and vanilla panacota with strawberries (Italian), Pasta Primavera (With fennel and asparagus) and Lemon balm cream trout (with baked asparagus).

Ingredients (serves 2):
  • 350 ml milk
  • 100 ml heavy cream (30% fat)
  • 30-40 g dark chocolate
  • 1 teaspoon organic cocoa
  • 50 ml mint syrup (the kind used for cocktails)


Bring the milk, cocoa, cream and chocolate to a boil over low heat:

Stir until it all dissolves. Get the mint syrup and pour it into serving glasses:

Pour the hot chocolate on top of the syrup. Don't stir. Dig in! :)
