I recently had the pleasure of visiting the beautiful city of Guadalajara, Mexico. While there, I was fortunate enough to try a traditional Mexican hot chocolate called I Left My Heart in Jalisco. This decadent drink was made with rich, dark chocolate and spices, and it was absolutely delicious.
I was so impressed by this hot chocolate that I decided to recreate it at home. The recipe is surprisingly simple, and the results are just as delicious as the original.
