Hot Drinks for the Holidays — Part I — Hot Cardamom Chocolate (Vegan)

December 17, 2014 By elviira Leave a Comment

Hot Cardamom Chocolate | Low-Carb, So Simple!

What could be more comforting than a mug of hot, delicious drink on a chilly day? – A mug of healthy hot, delicious drink! Just get it cozy and leave the wind and frost outside. Sit back and grab a mug of one of these dreamy drinks!

I decided to post a series of hot drinks which are perfect for the holiday time but also any time when you need some warmth and comfort. All these drinks are vegan and paleo, to make them suitable for as many people as possible. I wanted to keep the drinks low in carbs as well, naturally without sacrificing any flavor.

But first, let me introduce Hot Cardamom Chocolate, an unbelievably creamy and delicious drink where dark cocoa powder gives the ultimate chocolaty flavor, coconut cream makes the drink rich and thick and where cardamom provides spiciness and extra warmth. I have to say that I seldom have tasted anything that creamy, which is vegan as well!

 

 

 

Hot Cardamom Chocolate (Vegan)

1 teaspoon organic whole cardamom seeds
2 tablespoons unsweetened dark cocoa powder
2–3 tablespoons Confectioner’s Style Swerve OR other sweetener to taste
1 cup = 240 ml filtered water OR spring water
1/2 cup = 120 ml organic coconut cream without food additives

 

Directions

  1. Take a small tea filter or a mesh ball and place the cardamom seeds there. Close tightly.
  2. Place all ingredients — including the tea filter or the mesh ball — in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until steaming hot. Don’t let boil. Stir often.
  3. Remove the cardamom seeds and serve immediately.
