Whisk together the sugar and spices to combine. Whisk in the cocoa nibs.
Put everything in a blender or food processor and blend it up. This will crush the cocoa nibs and melt the cocoa butter in them, eventually turning it into a liquid or paste. Give your blender breaks if it starts to overheat. It took me a total of 15 to 20 minutes of blending.
If you’re not using it right away, form it into a cake, wrap it well, and set it in the fridge to harden. If your cocoa nibs have formed a liquid, pour it into a bowl to harden.
Take the hardened chocolate out of the container. Chop the desired amount into small pieces. How much you use will depend on how chocolatey you want your hot chocolate.
Heat the milk in a pot until it simmers. When the milk simmers, add the chopped chocolate and whisk vigorously. You want to mix in the chocolate, but also create some froth.
Pour the hot chocolate into fancy cups (small ones are best because it's so rich), and serve it forth.
