With temps on the decline come December, ‘tis the season for hot chocolate. Connoisseurs of the rich, chocolaty beverage will want to try all three of these sweet options:
• Make strides to Pacha Organic Café (2915 Guadalupe St.) for organic, fair trade hot chocolate – dark or Mexican spiced – served straight up or with espresso for a mocha.
• Visit Bennu Coffee‘s flagship café (2001 E MLK Blvd.), boasting regular and Mexican hot chocolate, 24 hours a day – plus whipped cream.
• Shop online at Hijita – an authentic, Austin-based Mexican chocolatería – serving up single-origin drinking chocolates in flavors like Oaxacan and Calabaza Spice.
