El submarino (Argentinian hot chocolate)


"El submarino" means "The submarine" and it's a popular kids' treat in Argentina, referring to the sunken piece of chocolate in the hot milk. 
The drink is flavored with vanilla, a bit of sugar and, of course, the lovely piece of chocolate.



Perfect for evenings. Just stir and melt and watch the dark chocolate magic unfold itself in the milk. Sip away :)
Recipe source: here

Last year: Wild rice risotto with peas and basil pesto.
Two years ago: Belgian brownies.
Three years ago: Polish buttermilk drink (Kwasne Mleko Ze Szczypiorkiem).




Ingredients (for 1 serving):
  • 180 ml milk
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 drop of vanilla extract
  • 2 squares of chocolate (or a chocolate teaspoon)


Bring the milk to a simmer in a small pot. Pour it into a serving mug or cup and mix the sugar and vanilla in it. Serve it with the piece of chocolate next to it.

It's done, dig in! :)
