How Do You Make the Cordyceps Chocolate Latte?

Starting your day with a caffeine free cordyceps chocolate latte couldn’t be simpler. Prep time is a breeze! You just scoop, pour, and blend.

Begin by adding a mushroom blend with additional chaga, coconut milk powder, cacao, and cordyceps to your favorite cup. Pour hot water over these powerhouse ingredients and use a frother to mix them well. This process not only blends the powders smoothly but also creates a beautiful froth.

Taste and adjust the elixir to suit your preferences. If you like a hint of sweetness, try adding English toffee stevia. For an extra flavor boost, consider a dash of Medicine Flower Coffee Flavoring—perfect for getting that coffee taste without any health issues.

Customizing Your Cordyceps Chocolate Latte

You can personalize your latte in various ways to suit you. For a warm, spicy note, add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom. I even like to add a tiny but of cayenne. If you prefer a smoother, richer taste, mix in a dash of vanilla extract. During the holidays, you may want to add peppermint or orange extract.

For a creamier texture, substitute hot water with almond milk or use full-fat coconut milk instead of coconut milk powder. Adding a tablespoon of nut butter can provide extra protein and creaminess, while sprinkling hemp seeds or chia seeds on top adds texture and nutrition. Experiment with these options to create your perfect Cordyceps Chocolate Latte.
