Preparation time: 5 mins

Cooking time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 250 ml hot water + 8 g (1 tbsp) MannaBrew powder

  • 125 ml unsweetened almond milk (or milk of your choice)

  • 7 g (1 tbsp) unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 5–10 ml (1–2 tsp) maple syrup or honey

  • 1.5 ml (¼ tsp) vanilla extract

  • 10 g (1 tbsp) dark chocolate chips or cacao nibs (optional, for extra richness)

  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew MannaBrew: Add the MannaBrew powder to a French press or Moka pot. Pour 250 ml of hot water over the powder and steep for 5–7 minutes, then strain or press down the plunger.

  2. Prepare Chocolate Base: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the almond milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, optional chocolate chips, and optional cinnamon.

  3. Whisk continuously until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and warm.

  4. Combine: Pour the freshly brewed MannaBrew into the saucepan with the chocolate mixture. Stir well to unify.

  5. Froth (Optional): For an extra frothy texture, carefully pour the warm mixture into a blender and blend on high speed for 15–20 seconds (or use a hand milk frother directly in the pan).

  6. Serve: Pour your MannaBrew Mocha into a mug. Garnish with a light sprinkle of cocoa powder or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate, and serve immediately.

TIP: For a winter twist, add a tiny pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper alongside the cinnamon to elevate the dark chocolate notes.
