Yay, have marked off your stories LondonFA. Thank you!

Please keep updating your stories folk and get in touch when you have done so. We have a little under 3 weeks until the new search is updated, so we need your stories to be updated with the new categories by then so members are able to search for them.

Our mod team are going through and checking and updating categories and story tags as we speak, but your help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have been doing some work in the background that could have affected this. But this is not something that we have actively changed, so will get this looked into, leave it with us!

Thanks.

Don't forget to get your stories updated. We will be changing over to the new search on 1st October 2021. So that's just over 2 weeks to get your stories updated.

Please post here or message us to let us know when you've updated your stories and we can mark them off as completed.

Wow! Thank you so much for getting your stories updated with the new tags. I have now marked them as completed for you.

Please keep things civil folks and stay on topic. Thanks!

Glad you think so! I can't wait to see everyone's contributions! Secretly hoping we get some people on the site in the competitive mood and have a chocolate eating challenge... Exciting!

There isn't a way to currently search for 'Premium Only'.

We are doing some updates to the story section at the moment with the new categories.

The new search function will go live as of the 1st October 2021 to allow members to search by the new story categories and tags we have created. Were leaving it a month to update the search to give authors a chance to update their stories with the categories so they will appear in the results when members use the new search form.

Once this is done we can hopefully do some rejigging of the stories page to better reflect the new categories and display story genres, tags and categories, and we my be able to add a premium sub listing too!

Thanks again for your suggestion!

Xocolatl originated in Mayan culture and is the original hot chocolate drink!

This hot chocolate is a spiced, slightly bitter chocolate drink that was popular with Aztecs and Mayans, and you can still enjoy the drink today with the right ingredients!

It's not as sweet as typical hot cocoa, so you can taste the flavor in the chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla and chilli!

INGREDIENTS:

Dark Chocolate - 1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate
Milk - 2 cups of full fat milk or milk substitute if vegan.
Cinnamon - 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Vanilla - 1 teaspoon vanilla
Red Chili - 1 chili pepper, split in half and seeds removed
Honey - 1- 4 tablespoons honey (depending on how sweet you wish to make it.)

INSTRUCTIONS:

Step 1 - Melt the chocolate with a little of the milk in a small pot over medium heat.
Step 2 - Whisk in the remaining milk, the cinnamon, vanilla, and dash of salt.
Step 3 - Add the chili pepper to the pot and bring the pot almost to a boil.
Step 4 - Remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for 10 mins.
Step 5 - Remove and discard the chili pepper.
Step 6 - Whisk in the honey, 1 tablespoon at a time, and taste until it is a sweetness you like.
Step 7 - Pour the spicy Aztec hot chocolate into mugs and serve!

If you decide to have a go at making this delicious drink, share you pics and recipe variations with us!
