One of the things I love the most about winter, is coming into a toasty warm home and indulging in hot chocolate. This feeling brings me back to my childhood when my sister and I played in the snow for hours and then go inside for a well deserved pause and a hot cocoa made with love by my mom.
Now I do the same for my kids, and I usually make one for myself as well...winter just wouldn't be right without it! But as much as I do adore the taste of my Ghirardelli mix, the list of ingredients leaves me feeling less than enamored. So a few ago, when someone I follow on Instagram (@persionprincessjuicing) posted the recipe to this wonderful hot cocoa recipe. I decided to try it and it was an instant hit with the whole family!
Guilt-Free Hot Chocolate
Ingredients
1 3/4 cups of hot filetered water*
1 1/2 tbsp. raw cacao
2 tsp. honey
A splash of almond milk
Method
Place cacao, honey and almond milk in a large mug and pour hot water on top.
Serve and enjoy
* I substitute almond milk for the water for both my son and husband who prefer a thicker and richer taste.
Thanks for reading,
Amelie
