Ingredients

- 4 cups water filtered
- 1/2 cup coconut cream or 3/4 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder or cacao powder, unsweetened
- 1 TBS maca powder
- 1 TBS reishi mushroom
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 2 TBS coconut sugar
- 1/2 TBS pure maple syrup or to taste
Instructions
- Soak cashews covered in a bowl of room temperature water for 6-8 hours. OR soak cashews in a pot of boiled water for 45 minutes.
- In bowl of heavy duty food processor or high speed blender, add all of the ingredients. Process for 2-3 minutes. Remove lid and use spoon to check for sweetness – add to taste as necessary. Blend again. There will be some coconut cream residue left in bowl. Scrap with spatula and mix in as much as you can.
- Using cheese cloth or nut milk bag and large bowl (enough for 5-6 cups of liquid) carefully pour nut milk mixture through strain, squeezing out all of the liquid. What remains is the pulp – you can dry out to use as a nut meal for later.
- Transfer chocolate nut milk to glass jars with lid. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
