1-1/2 cups rice or soy milk (no cow!)
2 Tblsp. really good cocoa powder unsweetened
(Ming prefers Ghiradelli or the cute little Dutch Boy, aka Droste's Cocoa)
2 Tblsp. Xylitol
4 drops or 1/8 tsp mint or orange extract (non-alcoholic)

With a beverage hand mixer or in a jar with a lid, mix/shake all the ingredients until well blended. Pour into a small saucepan and simmer on medium heat for five minutes. Pour into two small mugs. "Never serve it so hot that it hurts your tongue!"
