To use the Molinillo, heat your milk or water in a pot and add your HERNÁN Mexican hot chocolate tablillas. Once the chocolate is melted, place the Molinillo in the pot.

Mexican hot chocolate is a traditional beverage made by melting chocolate squares in water or milk. Our HERNÁN Mexican hot chocolate is made of organic cacao harvested in a bio-diversified plantation in Chiapas. It has an intense cocoa flavor and gritty texture, the result of the artisan chocolate making process.
To keep your Molinillo in the best condition, rinse it with warm water immediately after use to remove any chocolate residue. Avoid soaking it in water for prolonged periods to prevent the wood from cracking. Dry it thoroughly with a towel and store it in a dry place. Occasionally, you can rub a bit of food-safe mineral oil on the wood to maintain its finish and longevity.
