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.

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 😊

@mirror-reflection
@mirror-reflection 26 күн бұрын
@@loribakergirl6438 Yes, I found that its alertness effects are subtle and gentle. It gives me no jolt or jittery feeling like coffee did. I also drink some green tea, but get most of my beneficial alertness from cacao. It helps me to limit what I sweeten it with (being diabetic). Going from coffee to cacao will take a transition period, but I've found that cacao won't disrupt your quality of sleep like coffee tends to. Good luck if you choose to try it...for me, it was worth it!

do you have a favorite Cacao "nib" you like over others? Please share ty
@CoachSofia
@CoachSofia Жыл бұрын
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.

Would you be able to tell me how many calories are in one cup using the same recipe?
@CoachSofia
@CoachSofia Жыл бұрын
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.

Hi there, by any chance are you aware if there is a difference between using cacao paste vs cacao powder?
@CoachSofia
@CoachSofia 4 ай бұрын
The powder is stone ground so it's just easier to use! I bought cacao paste before and it takes more time to slice it. Powder is also easier to melt.

I love to drink cocoa everyday and I stop drink coffee for two months ago but I found out may be it contaminated with lead ,aluminum and cadmium. Do you think the process produces cacao it will get rid of them. Thank you
@CoachSofia
@CoachSofia Жыл бұрын
The company I get this cacao from does tests to make sure it's not contaminated. You can read how they do that on their website, but yes it's important to get high quality chocolate and ensure the company tests for these things.

This cacao is different because it's wild and non hybrid. It's also not processed so it has way more antioxidants and benefits that conventional dark chocolate.

Enjoyed your video. Now the Season is cold, I will start my homemade cocoa again.😊 I use an organic pure cocoa from Peru, it's very strong, 40mg would be too much for me! 20mgs cacao powder, half milk/water, also add cacao button (pure theobroma oil from the cacao nut) & for sweetness some honey, I love the texture. ~ Best wishes from Scotland 🐱🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
