Mexican Mushroom Hot Chocolate
$5.50
Herbal Hot Chocolate
Organic Ingredients: Cacao, 8 Mushroom Blend, Ceylon Cinnamon, Cassia Cinnamon, Cumin, Cayenne, Vanilla Bean
A flavor explosion of rich chocolate, sweet cinnamon, toasty cumin and a touch of hot chili, harmonized with comforting vanilla and infused with the beneficial healing properties of medicinal mushrooms.
Cacao has the one of the highest antioxidant levels of any food on the planet, and is high in protein, beneficial fats, vitamins and minerals, magnesium, vitamin C, and natural sulfur. It’s pleasantly relaxing, imparting a sense of well being, and the taste is similar to unsweetened baking chocolate, slightly bitter and deliciously rich. The cacao is blended with 8 potent medicinal mushrooms including Chaga, Cordyceps, Lion's Mane, Maitake, Reishi Shiitake, Tremella, & Turkey Tail. The addition of medicinal mushrooms imparts an early balance and a myriad of health benefits. Cinnamon is one of the most delicious and healthiest spices in the world with a wide range of impressive health benefits, and is a common ingredient in many traditional Mexican recipes. Cumin, a quintessential Mexican spice, has a unique slightly bitter and somewhat toasty flavor that blends perfectly with cinnamon, cayenne and vanilla. Cayenne enlivens the senses, and traditionally has been blended with cacao for thousands of years in Mayan cultures.
To make, whisk a tablespoon with a cup of your favorite warm milk, and sweeten as desired. You can also blend the hot chocolate mix and warmed milk in a blender – just make sure your blender top is vented. We especially love the delicious bits that might settle to the bottom of your cup!
