The Weekly Cocktail Recipe – Kensington Place’s ‘Aztec Cocoa’

By Jonathan Hatchman, Food Editor, @TLE_Food

Located in Notting Hill, Kensington Place first opened back in 1987. Having grown over the years, the restaurant is now a destination space that prides itself on relaxed and casual dining with a strong focus on fish and seafood. What’s more, there’s also a bar that serves some exciting cocktails.

Created especially for Christmas, this week’s recipe is for the Aztec Cocoa – a twist on Mexican hot chocolate that uses tequila, chilli, cinnamon, allspice, and rich dark chocolate.

Kensington Place can be found at 201 Kensington Church Street, London, W8 7LX.
