Ingredients
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 tbsp raw cacao (approx 20g)
- 1-2 tsp maple syrup
- 1 pinch himalayan rock salt
- optional spices to taste (cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, cayenne pepper etc)
Instructions
- Add milk, water and chopped raw cacao to a pot and simmer gently until cacao is melted (don't boil and make sure to whisk regularly)
- Add maple syrup, pinch of salt and any spices you want to include
- Use a hand blender to froth before pouring into your favourite mug
Notes
- A hand blender is optional, but really gives it a nice froth! You can also use a milk frother or just whisk vigorously for 30 seconds before serving
- My favourite method is making it on the stove, but you can also do it in a blender if you prefer (my blender doesn't tolerate hot liquids well so make sure yours does before trying)
