This recipe is for four as it is highly unlikely you will be allowed to drink this alone, but that said I often measure out a glass single glass of wine and pop it in a pan and season with around 30g of cacao, and a pinch of spices, honey etc to taste.

You'll need

1 bottle red wine (750ml)

1 cinnamon stick

140g Venezuelan Black, 100% pure cacao – I used Willie's Supreme Cacao

1 tsp ground allspice

5 whole cloves

3 tbsp soft brown sugar or honey (or to taste)

For the decoration

4 long cinnamon sticks

Warm the red wine (bring to a simmer but do not boil), add the spices, then the chocolate and finally the sugar or honey to taste.

Pour into glasses, add a long cinnamon stick for decoration and serve immediately.
