Description
Almost like drinking a spicy chocolate gingerbread, this chocolate chia is a comfy feel-good drink. Give this relaxing gem a try.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups strong chai tea (use a classic flavour variety)
- 1 cup hazelnut milk (or use any other plant-milk of choice)
- 2 TBSP raw cacao powder
- 1 TBSP maple syrup, or to taste
- 2 TBSP coconut milk (optional, for a richer chocolate)
Instructions
- Let the chai tea steep in a mug with 2 cups of water for about 10 minutes – it should be really strong so you might want to use 2 bags.
- Pour the chai tea, the plant-milk and the coconut milk in a pot and gently whisk in the cacao powder. Add maple syrup to taste – start with 1 TBSP and see if it’s sweet enough for you (this will depend greatly on the kind of plant-milk you’re using, some have a natural higher sugar content than others and maybe you’re also using an already sweetened variety).
- Gently heat it up until it’s warm but no too hot. This will preserve the raw cacao’s nutrients.
- Pour in a big mug and let the smells and taste of christmas mingle with chocolate!
