Fredagsmys #5
Swedish for "cozy Friday"
The work week is over! What better way to start a weekend than to have a little cozy fun (lite mysigt) together with your family and friends. Inspired by our latest article, A Chocolate Taster’s Guide To An Autumnal Reawakening Of Our Senses, we welcome you to this first autumn “fredagsmys” with a cup of hot chocolate. If you ask our friends at Taman Chocolates, hot chocolate has been a perfect fika from the beginning of time.
“For the most part of its history, chocolate was enjoyed primarily as a bitter, ceremonial drink for indigenous people of South America, and a decadent drink for European aristocracy. In modern days drinking a hot drink with cocoa is becoming a ritual of mindfulness.“
Today’s Friday mys is Hot Chocolate recommended by the founders of Taman Chocolates!
1. 100% chocolate liquor from single origin of Colombian cacao beans (or you can use one of Taman chocolates on a spoon for easy melting, with added lavender, mixed herbs, or a combination of coffee and cardamom. )
2. Hot water
3. Sprinkle with rose buds
Pour the hot water over the cacao beans, and stir as it melts into the water. If you have a small milk frother wand, it can help. Add some roses. Simple pleasures are often the best.
Enjoy!
It is picture perfect.
