Description

Rich and creamy with deep, dark flavor, you get a double dose of heat from a mug of this non-dairy, sugar-free hot cocoa!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2.5 cups non-dairy milk
  • 1 cup coffee
  • 56 Tbsp. cacao or cocoa powder
  • 12 Tbsp. NuNaturals Cocoa Syrup, or other sweetener to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a medium-sized saucepan and gently heat. Whisk frequently to incorporate the cacao powder.

When hot, divide between two large mugs.


Notes

I use a stevia-sweetened syrup here because I try to avoid refined sugar as much as possible, but of course, feel free to use whatever sweetener you prefer.
