Raw Hot Chocolate Recipe

rawhotchocolateThis Raw Hot Chocolate Recipe has come about due to feeling a little chilly of late. Something to do with winter I think! Making this yummy warming spiced raw hot chocolate every afternoon has helped ward off the chill.With this Raw Hot Chocolate recipe – I’ve named it Spicy Cacao Bliss in a Cup – of which I’m about to share with you because it tastes SOOOOO GOOOOOOOD!

Spicy Cacao Bliss in a Cup:

In a small high powered blender (the Rocket Blender is great for this) you will need to add:

  • 1C raw almond milk
  • 1 heaped T raw cacao powder
  • 1t dark agave syrup (if you have a sweet tooth you can adjust to taste)
  • 1t cinnamon
  • 1/2 t powdered star anise (crushed in a mortar and pestle)
  • Optional: 1/4 vanilla bean pod (slice to split open and scrape vanilla seeds into blender).

Method:

Blend all in blender for approx. 3 minutes. This will warm the drink up but not heat it enough to destroy all the good stuff. Pour into a latte glass or tea cup, coffee mug, dust with a sprinkling of cinnamon. And serve. YUM!

Enjoy
