Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons raw cacao powder
  • 1 teaspoon ashwagandha powder
  • 2 cups almond milk (or any dairy-free milk)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine the almond milk, cacao powder, ashwagandha powder, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract in a small saucepan.
  2. Whisk them together until the powders begin to dissolve and the mixture looks even and glossy.
  3. Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking continuously until it is heated through and frothy.
  4. Allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes without boiling.
  5. Pour into a mug, sprinkle with cinnamon if desired, and enjoy warm or chilled.

Notes

For a creamier texture, use oat milk instead of almond milk. You can also add a small splash of coconut milk for richness.
