Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sifted cocoa powder and granulated sugar to remove any lumps.
  2. Slowly pour in the boiling water while whisking constantly to create a smooth, lump-free paste.
  3. Add the salt and place the saucepan over medium heat.
  4. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly and the sugar is fully dissolved.
  5. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature.
  6. Stir in the vanilla extract once cooled.
  7. Transfer the syrup into a clean, airtight glass jar or bottle.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using to allow it to thicken further.
  9. To serve, mix 1/4 cup of syrup with 1 cup of milk for a shake, or with 1 cup of sparkling water for a soda.
