In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Add saffron strands to the milk and let them steep for a few minutes.
In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped dark chocolate, Trident Nutra ISO Bang Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Isolate, cocoa powder, and sugar.
Pour a small amount of the hot saffron-infused milk over the chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth, creating a chocolate paste.
Gradually add the remaining saffron-infused milk to the chocolate paste while continuously whisking to ensure a smooth consistency.
Place the saucepan back on low heat and continue to whisk the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and the hot chocolate is smooth.
Add vanilla extract and cinnamon powder (if using) and stir to combine.
Continue heating the hot chocolate until it reaches your desired temperature, making sure not to boil.
