36% cocoa butter white chocolate + Australian lemon myrtle + lavender + Madagascan vanilla bean
Makes 1 x 8oz serving
- 1/3 cup drinking chocolate mix
- 1 cup liquid — whole milk, plant-based milk, or water
Plant-based? We love it with rice or cashew milk.
Begin by bringing your chosen liquid to a gentle boil in a small saucepan. Lower the heat and slowly whisk in the drinking chocolate mix, letting the rich cacao melt into a silken pool. Stir until completely dissolved and smooth.
Cover and allow to steep for at least 5 minutes—this is when the magic begins.
Blend on high for 1 minute to conjure a delicate froth. Pour into a small bowl or elegant glass, and grace with dried lavender, a curl of lemon zest, or a dusting of lavender sugar and a sprinkle of vibrant raspberry powder to elevate the ritual.
Enhancements:
- Water will heighten the cacao’s boldness and offer a more fluid texture.
- Steep overnight for a deeper, thicker experience.
- Infuse with crushed pink peppercorn or lemon balm for added bite.
- For a true Colombian-style indulgence, drop a slice of fresh farmer’s cheese into your cup.
- To soften the flavor, simply add more liquid or reduce the amount of mix.
Let this be more than a drink—let it be a pause, a pleasure, a return to self.
