Grenada Cocoa "Tea" | The Spicey Cook

Before this cocoa reaches your table, it goes through a process of fermenting, drying, roasting, shelling of the skin, grinding, and shaping. What I present to you in this video is a product of this multi-step process. This cocoa comes from Grenada, W.I. and may be enjoyed sweetened or unsweetened.
Spices used: Bay leaf, clove, star anise, cinnamon, nutmeg, orange peel, and ginger. If you choose not to use all of these, bay leaf and cinnamon are most desired in this chocolate drink.
Please leave any questions and comments 🙏🏽.

The spices are flavorful. I know you probably just prefer not to say it for many reasons. There are health benefits to these spices. I think we need these spices to fight COVID-19. Even that Cocoa Tea. It looks so delicious. Spicey Cook, you are good with your teas✅. I will share this video. Thanks for sharing💯👍🏽💕. I am sending to Sam’s Gifted Hands.

Emily, once again thank you for your support. The spices on its own is a flavored tea combination, and has many health benefits. You are right when you say I may prefer not to talk about them for many reasons. My video is only meant to show what I'm aiming at. However, ppl can always do their research on the health benefits. I am a big homemade tea creator/inventor, and drink a blend of herbs and spices every day. Thank you for watching! Happy holidays 🎄🎁🎊🎉
