According to Instagram: This is the world's best winter drink - and we have the recipe!

Attention, we have a new trend to announce - and it's so delicious that our mouth is already watering when writing: hot chocolate + red wine!

Granted, that sounds strange at first, but hey, we eat (and liiieben) and other crazy food combo like Nutella pizza or fries with milkshake dip #issso.

Incidentally, the winter drink was discovered by our colleagues from the UK online magazine Stylist , the recipe for which came from US food blogger Kylie Michell aka immaEATthat .

On Instagram #redwinehotchocolate is of course totally off, so the red wine chocolate is pretty sure to be THE scene drink this winter! And that's how easy it is:

For the world's best winter Christmas punch drink you only need 3 ingredients:
1 glass of red wine (Kylie Michell recommends a Cabernet Sauvignon)
1/3 cup dark chocolate drops

1 ½ cups of milk

First, warm the milk in a pot, add the chocolate drops and stir until the chocolate is completely melted. Then add the red wine, stir everything again et voilà!
For more red wine taste, just take less chocolate.

If you like, you can refine the winter drink with cinnamon, coconut whipped cream (yummmy !!) or marshmallows.

Dill Magazine spotlights Asian food

Asian noodles are the theme of Dill Magazine’s first issue, released July 17, as the magazine strives to uncover untold stories and “journey deep into the cuisine of Asia,” according to its website.

Shayne Chammavanijakul, the magazine’s founder, grew up enjoying food, and after listening to her Hakka Thai grandmother’s stories one summer, she was inspired to report on underrepresented cultures, cuisines and countries.

“I wanted [a] publication that explores Asian cooking in this detailed and nerdy academic way, focused on home cooks [and] mom-and-pop shops,” Chammavanijakul said.

An avid reader of food literature, Chammavanijakul said she noticed writing on Asian food concentrated just on celebrity chefs and famous restaurants. She wanted to fill a niche by sharing recipes with historical, cultural and political backgrounds.

Asian food accessibility does not necessarily mean removing the authenticity of the recipe, Chammavanijakul said. Instead, Dill offers a spectrum of food from a simple noodle stir-fry that can be done after school to big weekend projects with page-long ingredient lists, she added.

Wolfgang Puck: Set off culinary fireworks with this fresh, flavorful seafood recipe

I haven’t seen definitive statistics on the matter, but I’d be willing to bet that Independence Day sees more people across America cooking and eating outdoors than any other day of the year. It’s a time to enjoy summer in all its glory with family and friends; and food in the open air seems even better when it’s bookended first by relaxing in the back yard or park and later by watching a great fireworks show.

　　When it comes to selecting your main dish for Independence Day, it seems to me that people fall into two different camps. There are the traditionalists, who always go with tried-and-true main dishes like hot dogs and burgers or barbecue ribs, chicken or pork. And then there are people who want to do something original, looking every year for a way to add a new, exciting dish to the holiday.

　　This year, I’d like to offer you a recipe that I think will satisfy both the traditionalists and more adventurous souls: my grilled teriyaki scallops (or shrimp) with grilled pineapple-jalapeno salsa. And while the recipe may at first appear to be out of the ordinary among July Fourth offerings, there is also a strong case to make for it being undeniably all-American.
