Instructions
Blender Instructions
Combine all ingredients into blender and pulse on high speed for 10 to 15 second intervals until all ingredients have combined.
Give the blender carafe a few shakes, or open and stir, then blend further if you continue to see streaks in the mix after 2 minutes.*
Transfer to a clean, dry, airtight container and store until ready for use.
Sieve Instructions
Measure ingredients into a bowl, give them a quick couple of stirs to combine slightly.
Scoop ingredients into a sieve over a second bowl and press through to get rid of any clumps.
Stir to make sure ingredients are well combined (no streaks of white).
Transfer into clean, dry, airtight container and store.
To make Hot Cocoa:
Add 1/4 cup of mix to cup, pour 8 oz of hot milk** over top and stir until combined.
Enjoy!
Notes
*I recommend a stir and re-blending in any case, to avoid any clumps of brown sugar.
**Can also be made with water or non dairy milk
