Vegan Hot Cocoa with a Twist

The Mayas have been enjoying this cozy and healing beverage for thousands of years, now we're sharing our little earth-conscious recipe to bring you all the holiday cheer(s!)

Ingredients you will need:

• Plant milk (unsweetened, any type you prefer, I use oat milk)

• Carob powder – I use one that has 10-12% cocoa butter content

• Maple syrup (or date syrup, agave syrup…etc.)

Optional: vanilla extract, extra cinnamon, vegan whipped cream, marshmallows, etc.

Step 1 Bring the plant milk to a boil in a small pot. Step 2 Add the cocoa powder and maple syrup. Mix until everything is dissolved.

Enjoy with whipped creme and/or marshmallows. Twist the flavor by adding

• pumpkin spice

• gingerbread

• orange zest or orange essential oil

• peppermint extract or peppermint essential oil
