Iced Cacao Latte

I love a hot beverage as much as the next girl, but sometimes even in the winter I crave something iced, creamy, and chocolatey. Enter the Iced Cacao Latte. You can make this one with or without coffee. I usually crave it when I’m hitting that afternoon slump, so I often opt out of the cold brew addition. It basically tastes like elevated chocolate milk and I love it! You can also add in some cold brew if you’re looking for that chocolate coffee flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 c coconut milk
  • 2 tbs cacao powder
  • Optional: 1/4 – 1/2 c cold brew
  • Optional: drizzle of pure maple syrup or agave nectar for a little sweetness

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender for 1 min.
  2. Pour into your favorite glass over ice and enjoy!

This will take less than 3 minutes to make and gives you a boost when you’re looking for it. Cacao is high in magnesium, so this drink has so many amazing benefits such as supporting heart health & blood sugar balance, anti-inflammatory benefits, boosts brain function – the list goes on!
