Chocolate Mexicano

I have not tried this hot chocolate. I'm posting this for safe keeping. I found this recipe in I'm The Chef The Young Chef's Mexican Cookbook. For a quick and easy version of this recipe, follow these instructions: In a pot, boil 4 cups (1 liter) of milk, Add one tablet of Abuelita Chocolate. Stir until the tablet dissolves in the milk. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve hot.
