How to enjoy Cacao

How to Prepare and Enjoy 100% Ceremonial Cacao

There’s no single way to enjoy cacao—that’s part of the magic! You can keep it simple or get creative each day. Cacao invites you to listen to what your body needs and create a drink that’s perfect for you.

Whether you like it bold and pure, creamy and sweet, or spiced and nourishing—cacao can meet you where you are.

Your Basic Cacao Recipe

Here’s a great starting point for your daily ritual:

• 1 oz (about 28 g or about 2 tablespoons spoons) of chopped cacao
• 6 oz (about 180 ml) of hot water
• 1/4 oz( 7-10 g or 1 tsp) of sweetener (optional) – honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar—whatever you love
• Anything else you’d like – plant milk, spices (cinnamon, cardamom, cayenne), collagen, or superfood powders

How to Make It

1️⃣ Place everything in your high power blender or use a hand blender right in your cup/small pot. I recommend warming your pot with water before. 
2️⃣ Blend for about 30-40 seconds until smooth and creamy.
3️⃣ Pour into your favorite mug, take a deep breath of the rich, chocolatey aroma, and sip slowly, savoring every moment.

Why Blending Makes a Difference

Cacao has a naturally thick, rich texture—it’s minimally processed, so it doesn’t dissolve like powdered cocoa. Blending helps break down the cacao fully, combining it beautifully with the hot water and any extras you’ve added.

The result? A creamy, velvety, and frothy drink without any gritty bits—just pure, smooth cacao that’s a joy to sip.

Make It Your Own, Every Day

Every cup of cacao can be a little different. Some days you might want it bold and unsweetened, other days creamy with oat milk, or spiced with cinnamon or chili. There’s no wrong way—just follow what feels right for you today.
