Melt white chocolate in a heavy saucepan over low
heat. Stir constantly to make a smooth mixture and prevent scorching.
Whisk in coffee and vanilla until blended.
Add milk, half and half, orange zest, and
salt. Heat just until steam starts to rise from the surface—do
not allow to boil. Divide cocoa among coffee cups.
Garnish each serving with a sprinkling of
freshly grated nutmeg.
