This was a rainy day kitchen experiment that went sooooo RIGHT. We wanted to come up with a seriously potent and healing elixir that would boost energy levels and nourish the body on a deep level with superfood nutrition. This recipe has a definite hot chocolate twist, but it isn't overtly sweet. Our Rawmio Drinking Hot Chocolate Mix is made from real cacao beans and contains 70% cacao solids. We use only coconut sugar to sweeten- so the emphasis is all on the robust depth of flavor from the cacao, with just enough sweetness to balance any bitter. While raw cacao is a superfood in and of itself with exceptionally high levels of flavonols, and minerals magnesium, calcium, sulphur and zinc, we infused this elixir recipe with several other superfoods as well: wild maqui berry for a burst of anti-aging vitamin C and antioxidants, Veggimins Maca Matrix to boost energy, and Veggimins Amazing Algae for a well rounded array of vitamins and trace minerals. The base is brewed chaga tea, made from medicinal chaga mushrooms. We used tea bags but you can brew any chaga tea that you wish. Chaga offers many health benefits which range from strengthening immunity, to anti-cancer and antioxidant effects. Enjoy!
