Sometimes, self-love looks like a big act of indulgence. But more often, it’s found in the quieter moments, a few minutes carved out for yourself, a deep breath, and something warm to hold in your hands. That’s what this Coconut Cacao Latte is all about.
This nourishing drink feels like a hug from the inside, with a rich blend of cacao, creamy coconut, and a hint of cinnamon. It’s a little ritual you can turn to when you need to recharge, reflect, or just treat yourself to something comforting.
Coconut Cacao Latte Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your favourite milk)
- 1 tsp raw cacao powder
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- A pinch of ground cinnamon
- Optional: A dash of vanilla extract for extra warmth
Method:
- Pour the almond milk into a small saucepan and gently heat on the hob (or microwave if you’re short on time).
- Add the cacao powder, honey or maple syrup, and cinnamon. Stir well to combine.
- Keep stirring over low heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling.
- Remove from heat and, if you’re feeling fancy, froth the mixture using a milk frother or whisk.
- Pour into your favourite mug, sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top, and enjoy.
Why Little Rituals Like This Matter
