Peppermint Collagen Hot Chocolate
The holiday season is all about celebrations with friends and loved ones surrounded by good food. What we nourish our bodies affects our health and mood; when we nourish ourselves with real food and lovingly enjoy a holiday treat we are more likely to maintain bliss and balance.
No need to deprive yourself and definitely no need for judgment or guilt, especially when you incorporate high-vibe superfoods into your holiday treats!
This rich, minty hot chocolate gets its smooth texture from highly nutritious nut milk and its subtle sweetness from immunity-boosting honey. We’ve added our Cacao Magic blend for a variety of potent superfoods, including a dose of finely milled reishi mushroom powder, known to have an ever-growing list of healing properties. And a boost of our Cosmic Elixir for collagen and superfoods.
Gather This:
1 cup non-dairy milk
½ cup water
3 tbsp Cacao Magic or raw cacao
1 ½ tbsp sweetener of choice
A small pinch of salt
¼ tsp peppermint extract
1 tsp Cosmic Elixir
1 ounce of chocolate ( raw, vegan carob will also work)
Do This:
Blend all of the ingredients together, except for the chocolate. Pour the liquid into a small saucepan, add the chocolate and slowly bring to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in the chocolate. Simmer for another minute or so, keeping an eye on the chocolate to make sure it doesn’t burn. Remove from heat. Enjoy warm or chilled (wine glass over ice)!
