Submarino (Argentine Hot Chocolate)

More of a ritual than a recipe — a tall glass of steaming milk served with a solid bar of dark chocolate meant to be 'sunk' and melted.

Cuisine: Argentina

Ingredients

• 1 tall glass of very hot whole milk
• 1 bar of high-quality dark chocolate (approx 25g)
• Sugar (optional)
