This was a fun experiment that paid off! The orange flavor of Cointreau makes a lovely dance partner for the hot chocolate, and the tequila makes it all sing.
Cointreau & Silver Patron Tequila
1 cup milk
2.5 ounces chopped dark chocolate (the darker the better)
1.5 ounce Tequila
Half an ounce Cointreau
Heat milk in a pan until hot (but not boiling).
Stir dark chocolate into pan until completely dissolved.
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Pour into a large mug, then add tequila and Cointreau. Mix and enjoy!
