Hot Chocolate

When the winds of Hawaii come in from the north, a cup of hot chocolate warms your heart during the winter season. Clustering the ingredients together in a culinary harmony, we start with the milk. Pouring a deluge of the pasteurized liquid into the cup, it starts to brim, like a whirlpool. The soft, brown chocolate powder cascading down into a mound of cocoa, before starting to sink to the bottom of the glass. A silvery spoon to swirl the contents, the cocoa rises with a delicate scent. We then put it in the microwave for a lengthy amount of time. As the time reaches zero, the mixture expands greater heights of it's culinary aroma.

We pull out the now burning glass and hastily place it onto the counter. Almost like it was on fire. A few more minutes of waiting for the seconds to past, then eventually as a few minutes past. It's cooled down enough to drink and enjoy the taste of the sweet, light brown liquid. The small shiver that soon falls after the first drink, making us realize how cold  it seemed like before. The fragrance of the bittersweet liquid hitting our senses like a small wave. Especially the taste of the hot chocolate always makes it even better. The cocoa leaves our taste buds tingling and with a sugary tang. Making us wanting more, so we drink the warm liquid again. Which we are greeted with the same senses. The delicious taste always leaving the same sweet aroma. That's until we finish our cup. Which still leaves a small warmth and a small fragrance. This reminds us the magical expirence we just had with our hot chocolate and how we should go make more.
