Sleepy me sometimes can’t be trusted, so having to add individual components to my coffee is sometimes just an annoyance. I premix them and keep them in the fridge so all sleepy me has to do is grab the right thing. This is my favorite combo.
And yes- its not only Paleo, its Whole 30 compliant.
1/2 C full fat coconut milk
2 tsp unsweetened baking cocoa
2 tsp water
1 tsp cinnamon
4 drops peppermint essential oil
It helps to dissolve the baking cocoa in water before adding other ingredients. I use a small saucepan rocked up on its side, but you could use a small cup in the microwave if you prefer. Blend with milk, cinnamon, and peppermint, add a dollop (or more) to your coffee, inhale, and enjoy.
A note about peppermint essential oil:
If you’ve never used it before it can be a bit intense. Start 3 drops for your first run. If you just love the clearing of the sinuses you may try 5 drops.
