Carob Maca & Rose Nightcap
Are you in need of a cacao-intervention? Is your daily cacao habit taking over your life? If you answered YES, it's probably time to jump on the carob train for a while! The good news? It has a bunch of ah-mazing benefits!
A Cacao-intervention: I have recently-ish become addicted to having a post-dinner, pre-bed 'night cap' -- no, not the boozy kind (though, admittedly that sometimes happens), more of a cacao nightcap. Alas, as caffeine before bed isn't reallyyyy the best idea, I am now mixing up my nightly routine with carob instead.
I know, it's not the same, but it does pack some truly amazing benefits -- and as it's naturally sweet, I can also give my friend honey a rest too.
CAROB, MACA & ROSE NIGHTCAP
1/2 cup of nut-mylk (almond, cashew, or even coconut)
1/2 cup boiling filtered water
1tbsp raw carob powder (or roasted if you prefer!)
1 tsp raw honey / maple / rice malt [OPTIONAL for sweet-tooths]
1/2 tsp raw maca powder [1 tsp for maca addicts]
2 drops of rose water [OPTIONAL beauty boost]
1. Heat up the mylk either in your microwave, on stove top or by magic, and pour into your blender -- add hot water, carob powder, maca, rose water & sweetener, and blend until smooth (about 30 secs max).
