Vegan, GUILT-FREE hot chocolate drink!

I haven’t yet met a person who does not have a sweet tooth for hot chocolate. Why, it is warm, delicious, sweet and warms you up on a cold day!

Hot chocolate is mostly made with cow’s milk and/or whipped cream, but in doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy a vegan, guilt-free hot chocolate that will the nothing but HEALTHY for you. Raw, unrefined cacao powder is high in magnesium and manganese and therefore helps with your magnesium levels and keeps you calm and peaceful!

Here is a wonderful recipe for the vegan, Les Sofias’ style cacao drink!

DISCLAIMER: We do NOT own the images. 

Makes: 1 serving

Time taken: 5-10 minutes maximum

You'll need...

• 1 cup of vegan milk of your choice. Click here to check out our vega recipe for delicious and healthy ALMOND MILK
• A bit of water if you don't have enough almond milk
• 1/2-1 tsp of RAW cacao powder (see image above) 
• A sweetener of your choice and of your own quantity (optional) You can use coconut sugar, stevia or even honey. But this ingredient is optional because the almond milk can already be sweet enough. 

Method:

1. Pour in the almond milk into a saucepan. Adjust to high heat and warm up for a couple of minutes.
2. Once the almond milk is warm enough, add the cacao powder and stir rougly.
3. Add in the sweetener and reduce the heat to medium or medium-high. Let it warm up until you feel as if it is warm enough at your desired temperature.
4. When ready, pour into the mug(s) and enjoy near the fireplace!

Enjoy!

Yours,

Les Sofias!
