Ingredients:
- 1 cup light coconut milk (from the can)
- 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- Pinch of sea salt
- 1 Pack EllaOla Unflavored Multivitamin (per serving)
Instructions:
1. Add all ingredients to a small pot, place over medium low heat. Whisk vigorously to combine & get rid of any lumps of cocoa. Do NOT let the hot chocolate boil (you risk burning the almond milk!) Simply warm in the pot until steamy, about 3-5 minutes.
2. Once hot chocolate is hot, remove from heat & pour into 2 mugs.
3. Top with EllaOla Unflavored Multivitamin powder & whipped cream if desired. Enjoy!
