Ingredients

HOT CHOCOLATE:

  • 1/4 cup Love Beets Organic Beet Juice
  • 1 and 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 2+ Tbsp. maple syrup or honey
  • 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
  • splash vanilla extract

WHIPPED CREAM:

  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk or coconut cream*, placed in the fridge overnight
  • 2 tsp. maple syrup
  • splash vanilla extract
  • shaved chocolate for topping, optional

Instructions

  1. Heat beet juice either in the microwave or in a small pot on the stove. Set aside.
  2. Add almond milk, maple syrup, and cocoa to a medium pot over medium heat. Whisk frequently, bring to a low boil, and then add your beet juice. Whisk to combine and allow to come up to a boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. For the whipped cream: Open your chilled can of coconut milk and pour out the liquid (you can discard this or save it for smoothies or drinking). Scoop the solid part out into the bowl of your stand mixer and whip until creamy. Add maple syrup and vanilla and continue to whip until combined.
  4. Pour hot chocolate into a glass. Top with whipped cream and shaved chocolate.
