Elfsong Honey Hot Chocolate

Zeela

Today we visit the Elfsong Tavern in the Lower City of Baldur’s Gate. This is a very popular stop for travelers and locals alike. One of the local favorites is honey hot chocolate. This hot drink hits the spot on winter days!

I learned of the hot chocolate here from a book called “On Antidotes” by a dragonborn druid named Haskinn Xhesilaphin. The book contains the recipe for general antidotes, and I was especially excited to see that he included a tip on local drinks as well. Of course I had to go check this out. Hot chocolate does indeed cure a variety of ills.

Do some winter self-care and order yourself a giant mug of this topped with marshmallows. I love mine with peanut butter.

(The sweet mug is from Mad Anthony Brewing‘s Mug Club)
