Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon cacao powder
  • 1 teaspoon maca powder
  • 1 dash of cinnamon powder
  • 1-2 tablespoons boiling water
  • 1-2 teaspoons date syrup (or maple syrup), depending on your preference for sweetness
  • 1 cup oat milk (or milk of choice -- but oat milk's foamability is superb!)

Instructions

  • In your cocoa mug, combine cacao, maca and cinnamon
  • Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of boiling hot water and mix until there are no lumps
  • Add date syrup to the cocoa concoction and stir to combine. Add more syrup if you prefer a sweeter drink experience.

  • Add hot milk to the cocoa cup, stir and enjoy!
