In a medium saucepan, heat the unsweetened almond milk over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until warm but not boiling (about 2-3 minutes).
Whisk in the unsweetened cocoa powder, sugar substitute, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt.
Continue whisking until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer gently for 2-3 minutes to enhance the flavors, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and carefully pour the hot chocolate into two mugs.
Top with 1 tablespoon of light whipped topping on each serving, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, spiced flavors of Mexican hot chocolate!
