10 minIngredients
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
¼ teaspoon turmeric, ground
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1 tablespoon coconut sugar
Pinch ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
¾ cup organic almond milk
¾ cup organic coconut milk
2 tablespoons or 2 small squares of vegan dark chocolate
A dollop of Coconut Whipped Cream, optional
Directions
-
Make the Coconut Whipped Cream first, if using.
-
In a small saucepot, add the cinnamon, turmeric, cacao powder, coconut sugar, cardamom, cayenne pepper and vanilla. Slowly add the milk while whisking until there are no longer any lumps.
-
Place the pot on medium heat, bringing the milk to a boil, and stirring occasionally.
-
Once milk boils for 1 minute, turn off the heat and add the pieces of dark chocolate. Quickly whisk until the dark chocolate is melted and dissolved in the milk.
-
Add cayenne pepper and whisk. Taste and season to taste. Add more coconut sugar if you’d like more sweetness, more cayenne for more heat, or more cinnamon for more warmth.
-
Pour into your favorite mug. Top with the Coconut Whipped Cream and shredded chocolate and cinnamon, if you wish.
