Hot hazelnut at Pitango Gelato
Credit:Lindsay Smith
Ingredients: Organic hot hazelnut sipping chocolate with organic whipped cream and milk
Damage: $3.95
Skinny: European sipping chocolate, unlike traditional American hot chocolate, is thick, rich and bitter. (Insert "the way I like my men/women" joke here.) Pitango Gelato rounds out what would be a biting cup of oil-thick chocolate by blending it with steamed milk from its own organic farm, and tops it all off with organic whipped cream. The effect is still far less sugary than most hot chocolates, but it creates a deeper appreciation for the actual chocolate taste, itself. Eschew powdered cocoa and go European with a mug of hazelnut sipping chocolate.
