Preparation

Chef’s notes

To add a faint coffee flavor:
Mix 1 teaspoon instant espresso or coffee powder with the cocoa and then continue as written above, whisking the cream slowly into it. I did not do this; I felt the flavor was much more authentic without it.
To make less sweet:
Add more cream and more whiskey, 1 tablespoon of each at a time.
To make less boozy:
Add more cream and condensed milk, 1 tablespoon of each at a time.
To make more boozy:
You’ve got this.
