Posted by Michela North on

Looking for the perfect drink to warm you up on chilly days? Our Warming Drinking Chocolate is an indulgent, spiced treat that combines the rich, smooth flavors of our Madagascar Drinking Chocolate with warming spices and a dash of heat. It’s the perfect cozy drink to sip on after a long day, or to enjoy while snuggled up with a good book. 

Made with organic cacao from Bertil Akesson’s farm in the Sambirano Valley in Northern Madagascar, our Madagascar Drinking Chocolate is the ultimate gateway for chocolate lovers. Known for its bright and citrusy notes, it has a natural raspberry and peanut undertone that adds complexity to the drink. The addition of cinnamon, ginger, and a dash of cayenne pepper elevates the flavors even more, making it a comforting choice with a little kick.
