Method

1
Warm the water in a small pot over low heat until steaming but not boiling.
2
Finely chop 30 g of the ceremonial cacao paste so it melts easily.
3
Add the chopped cacao to the warm water and whisk until creamy and smooth.
4
Whisk in the panela, a pinch of cinnamon, and a tiny pinch of sea salt if you like.
5
Pour into a mug and serve warm. Take a moment for gratitude and intention before you sip.

Storage

Best enjoyed fresh and warm.

Good to know

Keep the heat low so the cacao stays smooth and doesn't scorch.
The intention: honor the earth, the people who cultivate the cacao, and our relationship with all living things.
Raw panela isn't in our list, so coconut sugar stands in for the sweetness.
