Chocolate Milk, Milk Substitute – I use Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Chocolate Milk which I really like but some mornings I find it a little too chocolatey (if that’s possible), so I add a little vanilla almond milk. For this recipe it really doesn’t matter what type chocolate milk you use. Any brand or form of chocolate milk or milk substitute works.
Atole – Atole is a toasted blue corn that is ground to a flour or fine cornmeal. It’s easy to find here in New Mexico, but outside of New Mexico you can either order it from a NM supplier or substitute with regular blue cornmeal or blue corn flour. Here are two NM suppliers that I know sell atole:
You could also make this beverage with regular cornmeal or masa and cocoa powder. And if you don’t like chocolate, just leave it out.
