  • 1/4 Tsp of  Raw Maca PowderPinch Cayenne Pepper or Chili Powder

Optional: Coconut whipped cream

1 Can BPA-Free Organic Coconut Milk

1 Tsp Vanilla + Sweetener of Your Choice to Taste 

Directions:

1. Lightly heat your  nut milk of  choice on medium heat (to keep the nutrients in the milk do not heat above 118F).

2. Whisk all other ingredients into the pot and serve warm!

3. Whipped Cream Recipe- Pour contents of the can in a jar or glass container and leave in the refrigerator overnight to separate. In the morning scoop out the cream and blend until frothy and in a whipped cream-like consistency. Serve immediately. Top your hot chocolate with the cream and sprinkle some cacao nibs. Enjoy!
