They are held between both palms and then rolled back and forth. The three rings above the whisk section spin around to create a delicious froth. If you are wondering how Molinillo Hot Cocoa Whisks are made, each one is hand-turned carved from a single piece of alder wood that uses ancient woodworking techniques.

Wash with warm water and mild dish soap. For best results, fill a bowl with warm, soapy water and spin the whisk back and forth as you would when frothing. Rinse thoroughly and let it dry completely before storing. Avoid soaking it to prevent damage.
Yes, the Molinillo is traditionally used for making Mexican hot chocolate, but it can also be used to mix and froth other beverages and sauces. It's great for preparing atole, champurrado, frothy coffee drinks, and even light broths or emulsified sauces that need gentle aeration.
Store it in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. Do not soak it in water, as this can cause swelling or cracking. To maintain its durability and prevent drying out, apply a food-safe wood oil (such as mineral oil) every six months.
The Molinillo is typically made from a single piece of wood using a spinning saw technique rather than traditional carving. While alder wood is sometimes used, the exact type of wood can vary. Common choices include pine, mesquite, or other locally available hardwoods in Mexico.
