Cozy Cacao Brew

10 minServes 1

A rich, warming cacao drink with maca and cinnamon - somewhere between hot chocolate and a ceremonial cacao. It's deeply satisfying without being overly sweet, and the maca adds an earthy, adaptogenic depth. Add a square of chocolate for a richer version.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 to 1 cup water
  • 1–2 tbsp coconut milk or cream
  • 1 1/2 tbsp cacao powder
  • 1/2 tbsp maca powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Optional: 1–2 squares of chocolate for garnish or richer flavor

Instructions

  1. 1Place everything in a small pan.
  2. 2Heat over low, stirring often, until all ingredients are dissolved and desired temperature is reached.
  3. 3Garnish with chocolate shavings or other topping.
  4. 4Variation: add 1–2 squares of chocolate for a richer, sweeter version. Use 3/4 cup water for a more concentrated brew.

Jennifer's tip

Start with 3/4 cup water for a concentrated, intense brew - add more if you prefer something lighter. The difference is significant.
