The flavors of Chaga and Maple are great together! I remember once when I was very young, my father let me sample the maple sap when it wasn’t quite a syrup yet, but had undergone a decent amount of boiling. It reminded me of hot chocolate, without the heavy dark-chocolate notes. When sipped in the frigid Saranac Lake winter, it warmed me right up! I also have fond memories of myself and younger siblings enjoying steamed vanilla milk when the adults would have coffee. These tidbits of nostalgia are the inspiration for today’s recipe. I wanted something with the texture of hot chocolate, but with the flavor of Chaga and Maple, a truly Adirondack beverage. After completing this recipe I’m not going to lie, it’s sinfully delicious! If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you must give this recipe a try!
Ingredients:
