Maz’s My-lo
SERVES 1; MAKES 500 ML (17 FL OZ/2 CUPS)
As a small kid, I loved chocolate drinks. This version is so satisfying, yet filled with organic plant-based wholefoods and superfood powders. No extra sugar, no harmful additives, no chemicals you can’t pronounce. Just good old-fashioned wholesome ingredients that make a delicious and nutritious drink. Get into it.
400 ml (14 fl oz) of your favourite nut mylk (I use Macadamia mylk,)
2 cups ice cubes (see Tip)
4 heaped tablespoons raw cacao powder, plus extra for dusting
2 tablespoons coconut sugar
1 teaspoon maca powder
1 teaspoon mesquite powder
2 tablespoons shredded coconut
- Blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth, then pour into a large glass or jar to serve. Dust with extra cacao powder.
- Enjoy straightaway because it’s so damn good!
tipIn cooler weather, you can omit the ice and blend the ingredients for longer — basically until the blender jug is warm to touch. High-speed blenders are so powerful that the friction of the blades spinning against the jug’s contents creates heat. You can use this same technique to make warm raw soups.
