Make it at 9pm without consequences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCocoa that actually blends:\u003c\/strong\u003e The soy lecithin acts as an emulsifier, keeping the cocoa powder distributed throughout the cup rather than clumping or sinking. If you're sensitive to soy, note that this product contains soy lecithin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpice with some specificity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ginger contributes warmth and a little bite. Cardamom brings subtle citrus undertones that keep the blend from reading as pure chocolate. Natural chocolate flavor rounds out the cocoa.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBetter with warm milk:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brewed half water, half warm milk — or any dairy alternative — this blend behaves like a latte. Oat milk works particularly well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNaturally occurring antioxidant compounds:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rooibos contains aspalathin and nothofagin; cocoa contributes flavanols. Both are naturally occurring compounds in their respective ingredients.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlass jar, 18 servings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Loose leaf in a recyclable glass jar. Approximately 18 cups per jar. The empties are useful — people repurpose them for spices, seeds, and the junk drawer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtisanally Crafted:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sourced from ethical suppliers, packaged here.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrab a jar for the stretch of the year when hot drinks stop being optional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructions for Brewing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heat water to 212°F. Use 1–2 tbsp per 8oz, steep 3–5 mins, then strain. For a latte, replace half the water with warm milk. Add more leaves for stronger flavor—don’t over-steep.
