Can you cut 1 Tonne of carbon pollution out of your life?
Take the challengeThis recipe was passed on to me by my friend Bonnie who is a goddess of all things yoga and delicious. It's a lovely alternative if you're looking to kick the coffee or you're feeling a bit chai'd out!
Ingredients
1 Heaped teaspoon of combined chai spices Tsp chai spices (ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, star anise, cloves)
Lots of fresh grated ginger and turmeric
Coconut milk (go for something that's 100% coconut with no additives)
1 Teaspoon of cacao
Your choice of sweetener: honey, maple, coconut nectar
Method
Add the chai spices, ginger, and turmeric to one part water and two parts coconut milk in a small pot. Bring to a slow boil stirring to avoid scorching on the bottom of the pot.
Once infused strain into another pot or your mug, add cacao and sweetener then blend with a stick blender to make it creamy and frothy (you can skip this step if you don't have the necessary equipment).
Sometimes a pinch of cayenne is a nice addition if you're feeling like a bit of heat!
Now grab a book, get back to bed and enjoy
