Notes

Tips
  • I use Kettle & Fire Beef Bone Broth for this recipe (use code MIMIBAKESCOOKIES for 20% off your order). I find their beef bone broth has a more neutral flavor and their chicken one has more spice. I prefer drinking the chicken one alone and I like to use the beef one in recipes like this where I want to change the flavor.
  • While each serving of this cocoa is 1 cup beef bone broth, you could replace half or however much you like with your milk of choice. Cow's milk, coconut milk, or almond milk will all work to use with the bone broth if you prefer.
  • I use maple syrup in this recipe as I thought the flavor would pair really well with the bone broth! If you want to use organic cane sugar, you can do that as well.
  • I use Dutch cocoa powder which is sweeter than natural cocoa powder. If you only have natural cocoa powder and would like to use that, then you may just want to add a bit more maple syrup to your liking.
  • If you want to add even more protein, try adding a scoop of collagen for an added protein boost, I like NuNaturals Organic Collagen.
  • Top this with my Homemade Organic Vegan Whipped Cream for a dairy free hot chocolate. Or top this with Homemade Organic Whipped Cream too!
  • High Altitude – Follow the recipe as noted.
