Classic Hot Cocoa

1 cup 250 ml Water
1/4 cup 50 ml Cocoa powder
3 tablespoon 45 ml Sugar
1/2 teaspoon 2 ml Cinnamon
3 cups 750 ml Milk

In a heavy bottomed saucepan bring the water, cocoa powder, sugar and cinnamon to a boil. Boil for two minutes.

Add the milk to the cocoa mixture, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture almost to a boil stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and let the mixture remain over the heat for a few minutes to thicken slightly (5 - 10 minutes depending on your willpower). Beat the mixture before serving. Garnish with marshmallows, whipping cream and/or ground chocolate.
