Start with a bottle of Demerara Overproof Rum, a kettle to boil water in and a gas ring to boil it on. You also need proper cocoa powder and real Demerara Sugar. Fine bone-china mugs are nice for visitors but you can use washed jam-jars.
My Bourne hair-stylists Vanessa and Donna had never heard of real cocoa til I mentioned it in the salon suported by another client of mature years who was being couffed by Vanessa as I was being made devilishly handsome by Avuasta ...
Organic full cream milk and if it has the cream on top, for ultra de-luxe cocoa use that real cream off the top of real milk. The best in the country comes from Lostwithiel's Greymare Farm and I find it in Leicester's Haymarket where it retails at £3 a litre and flies off the shelf
Put the kettle on a low gas setting with the alarm so it will be ready when wanted.
Into the mug, spoon some demerara sugar some cocoa powder and a soupçon of ground cinnamon. Mix in a measure of rum with a FORK stirring til you got a smooth paste.
Stir in 50 ml. of cream or milk til smooth. Fill the mug with hot water off the boil... s l o w l y ... stirring as you go.
Allow to rest while savouring the aromas. Drink with reverence in yer own time but before it goes cold and for soporific effects last thing before going to bed.
