Preparation Suggestion:
Blend 15g cacao with 200 mL hot water or non-soy based plant milk. Sweeten to taste with a little honey, maple syrup or coconut sugar. Add additional nutrient dense flavourings such as cinnamon. Top with cayenne pepper or chilli powder to activate your cacao.

Stovetop: Place all ingredients into pot and stir over low heat until cacao melts and blends in.

Milk frother unit: Place cold liquid and cacao (in fine pieces) into milk frother. Only fill the unit to the maximum line. Place the lid on the unit and press the button for it to go for a full cycle. Add to mug with sweetners and flavourings. If this method didn’t melt all your cacao next time try adding an ice cube to the frother – this will make the milk colder so it takes longer to warm up, giving the cacao more time to melt).

Blender: Warm milk and/or water mixture via preferred method. Add to blender with cacao, flavourings and sweetner. Blitz for 15 seconds or more if you prefer it more foamy.

Thermomix: Add liquid, cacao, sweetners and flavourings into Thermomix. Time 5 minutes, temperature max 70c (you don’t want to burn it that ruins all the goodness) and speed approx 3. If you like it foamy do an additional minute at speed 6.
