Hot chocolate with chili pepper
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. In most Latin American countries, pepper is added to all dishes, as people there love its spiciness and heat. Drinks are no exception: coffee, cocktails, and hot chocolate. This drink turns out aromatic and piquant. It might not appeal to everyone, but it's definitely worth trying.
