Anyone that knows me knows that there’s nothing I love more in this world than coffee (ok, maybe a few things…but you get me). I also LOVE chocolate, and I love spiking my normal foods and bevvies with superfoods to boost the nutrition…which is why I make my Superfood Mochas every morning with BareOrganics cacao powder! I use BareOrganics Energizing Probiotic Superfood Coffee as a base, which elevates it to the next level. Each individual biodegradable cup is infused with with revitalizing maca, guarana, cordyceps mushrooms, and schisandra—which are all powerhouse adaptogens.  Probiotics boost the impact of these handpicked nutrients by supporting digestion with every sip—making all of these goodies more absorbable and bioavailable. I know that the sound of whizzing up a Superfood Mocha before you’ve even had your morning joe might seem like a lot, but trust me it’s easier than it looks! This recipe only requires two easy steps.

Let’s talk health benefits of these ingredients! Not only does cacao taste amazing and give it that chocolatey flavor we all love, but it actually has tons of health benefits as well! It is the purest form of natural chocolate when untreated by heat. Raw cacao contains antioxidants, and has been a staple throughout South America for centuries thanks to the great taste and abundance of nutrients! Cacao is pretty bitter on it's own, so I sweeten it with coconut palm sugar. Sweetened only with low-glycemic coconut palm sugar means this elixir won’t spike your blood sugar like a traditional Starbucks mocha. This recipe also uses coconut milk powder, which is derived from the milk of a coconut — which is an ancient tropical source of hydration and wholesome nutrition, including healthy fats. This powerhouse morning pick-me-up also includes reishi, which is an adaptogenic powerhouse. Reishi mushroom is amazing for immunity and longevity, and it has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for more than two thousand years!

You have to be careful with buying superfoods, because a lot of brands compromise integrity and cut costs by adding fillers, preservatives, and artificial ingredients. BareOrganics is committed to providing the utmost quality, which makes me breathe easy knowing that I can trust and feel good about what I’m putting into my body.

Nowwww, let’s get to that recipe!
