Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using full-fat coconut milk because it makes the drink super creamy, but you can use light coconut milk if you prefer something less rich. Almond milk can be swapped for oat or soy milk if you have those on hand. Just keep an eye on the sweetness if you change milks!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep my cocoa powder in a sealed jar to keep it fresh and flavorful.
- •If you want a fancier version, try adding a dollop of whipped coconut cream on top!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll throw in a tablespoon of peanut butter for a chocolate-peanut butter twist.
- •If you're feeling adventurous, try adding a splash of espresso for a mocha vibe!
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Just give it a good stir when you reheat, as it may separate a bit.
Frequently Asked Questions
