Delicious Cacao Drink Recipe / High Flavanol Ceremonial Chocolate and its Health Benefits

This is my favorite cacao drink, and the recipe is so simple. If you want to try the ceremonial cacao that I use, visit this link coachsofiafitness.com/kakao
What is Ceremonial Chocolate or Cacao:
Ceremonial cacao is 99% genetically different from the store's conventional dark chocolate or hot chocolate powder. It is made sustainably by fermenting the beans and stone grinding them with minimal processing. No nutrients are removed, and no chemicals are added.
Ceremonial cacao has the highest sources of antioxidants, and is high in flavanol. It also contains properties that reduce inflammation and relaxes the nervous system. It contains 40 times the amount of antioxidants found in blueberries and more calcium than regular milk... has high levels of magnesium, which of course, helps relax the muscular system.
It also contains iron, and manganese. And with all of these benefits, ceremonial cacao improves cognitive function and enhances creativity.
The Ceremonial cacao I use: coachsofiafitness.com/kakao
I have tried several brands over the past few years that I like, but the brand that I keep going back to is Kakao. I love the Chuncho, a wild strain of Kakao that grows in Peru. It is sustainably sourced from farmers with very minimal processing.
Cacao Drink Recipe:
1. I usually add about half a cup of water and half a cup of almond milk. You can use regular milk, oat milk, or boiled water.
2. I add 2-4 tbps of Kakao
3. I add a scoop of unflavored collagen protein in the morning: amzn.to/3kycVNa If you want your cacao to be creamy and thick, I recommend that you blend it for two-three seconds in a blender. Or you can also use a milk frother.
I hope you enjoyed this video. If you'd like to grab a bag of this delicious cacao and this is your first order, you can get 10% off with the coupon code: SOFIAHABITY at the checkout.

Omg this cacao is amazing. I just brought it the taste is unlike anything I’ve ever tried before. Thank you for sharing. For dieters the macros are nothing to sneeze at so something to take into consideration when adding this to your diet.

[@CoachSofia]

So happy to hear that! Yes, ceremonial has cacao contains all the nutrients (full healthy fats). I usually have 20-30 grams in morning with collagen which is around 200 calories but it sustains me for a long time and I even workout after. I advise you have it on an empty stomach not as an after meal drink :) again, so glad you are enjoying it 😊

Is it possible to buy dried cacao beans and grind them? Where I live I find the cacao beans but not this brand you mentioned.

From my understanding and videos I watched of how cacao is made, the beans have to go through a fermentation process then you stone grind them so they becomes powder. The website of this brand explain the process as well.

How can collagen be broken down by temperature? Is the most common source of collagen not from boiling bones? We make bone broth all the time and imagine that we are creating collagen….

[@leeoliver391]

​@@tomhamilton7726 you are correct!! Collagen powder is durable and retains its bioactive peptides up to a scorching 1400° F. Anyone who says otherwise is either a liar or terrible at research!!! I'd challenge any one of them to point me to a single scientific publication which says otherwise 🤣

[@romona7]

Collagen can withstand heat up to 572 F...do some more research

[@virginiacorcoran1326]

Collagen peptides can withstand heat up to 572°F, making collagen one of the few protein powders that's good for cooking and baking. Cacao does contain caffeine, approximately 4-5 milligrams per teaspoon, which I learned from cooking and baking professionally.

[@MyArielMusic]

do you have a favorite Cacao "nib" you like over others? Please share ty

[@CoachSofia]

I use nibs now just for recipes or to make a regular hot chocolate drink. Ceremonial chocolate is different from any high-quality nibs I've tried. That being said, I like to use 'Navita'' or 'Organic Traditions' for better quality cacao. Ceremonial cacao can't be found at the regular stores right now because it's sourced directly from farmers and is a wild strain without any processing.

[@syntheticpulse5857]

Would you be able to tell me how many calories are in one cup using the same recipe?

[@CoachSofia]

Yes, I use 20 grams (85 calories of Kakao). In the package, it says 1 serving is 40 grams. But I actually find that 20 g. is enough for me. I also use about half a cup of unsweetened almond milk (around 35 calories) and the collagen has about 20 (which is all protein). Because the cacao is full fat, it keeps me full for hours when I have it with the protein. So I don't really worry about the calories, if I'm eating light for the rest of the day.

[@veronicamaes5129]

Is it bitter? Does it need a sweetener?

[@CoachSofia]

The Signature blend doesn't need a sweetener. It tastes delicious and not bitter. It is sweetened with organic Panela. The Pure is not sweetened and you can add some honey.
