Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cayenne pepper, maca powder, cacao powder, carob powder, and pink salt. Whisk together until the mixture is well blended and free of lumps.

  2. 2

    Mix Liquid Ingredients

    In a separate bowl or a measuring cup, combine the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond milk. Stir well to ensure that the maple syrup is fully integrated into the almond milk.

Blend

  1. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the liquid mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a whisk to mix everything together until you have a smooth, homogenous liquid. Make sure there are no clumps remaining.

  2. 4

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness or spice to your preference. You can add more maple syrup for sweetness or more cayenne for heat.

Serve

  1. 5

    Chill or Serve Warm

    You can serve the drink warm or chilled. If you prefer it warm, gently heat the mixture in a saucepan on low heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.

  2. 6

    Garnish (Optional)

    Pour into mugs or glasses and garnish with a sprinkle of cacao or carob powder on top for decoration, if desired.
