A hug in a mug.
That’s what this drink is.
Velvety. Smooth & creamy. Very chocolate-y.
And since it is packed with antioxidants and hormone friendly ingredients, it is so good for your health as well!
Get yourself cosy with this drink today or it is also a great choice when you are expecting guests to impress and show that hot chocolate is in fact a health food. 😉


A fun tip for you: if you are like me, and you cannot drink en entire mug all at once, pop it in the fridge and let it settle for a couple hours or overnight. It will be an amazing chocolate-y dessert that may be even better than served hot!
