PROJECT OVERVIEW
PROJECT OVERVIEW
This isn’t just a cosy chocolate drink, it’s a performance ritual in a mug. Pure ceremonial cacao contains theobromine (gentle, sustained energy), magnesium (muscle and mind relaxation), and antioxidants (cellular support). Paired with warming spices and mindful preparation, it can lift mood, sharpen focus, and steady your nervous system.

WHAT WE DID
WHAT WE DID
Warm your mug with hot water so your cacao stays at the perfect temperature. Chop your cacao into small pieces so it melts evenly. Blend or whisk the cacao with hot water until smooth and velvety (a handheld frother works beautifully). Add your spices—cinnamon, turmeric, cayenne, salt—and blend again. Taste and adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup, then stir in vanilla. Sip slowly, ideally in a quiet moment. Notice the richness, the aroma, and how your body responds.
