- Pinch cardamom powder
- Pinch cinnamon powder
- 2 teaspoons raw cacao powder
- 1 tablespoon honey (or to taste)
- 1 ½ cups macadamia milk (store-bought or make your own - see below)
To make your own macadamia milk (makes 4 cups - keep extra in the fridge for up to 4 days)
- 1 cup unsalted macadamias
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 medjool date, pitted
- 4 cups water

What to do

1. If making your own macadamia milk, blend the macadamias, vanilla, date and water in a high performance blender at medium to high speed until creamy white. Pour into a clean, sterilised glass bottle. You can store the macadamia milk in the fridge for about four days.
2. Combine the cardamom, cinnamon, raw cacao and honey in a mug.
3. Pour over 1 tablespoon of boiling water and stir to combine. Heat the macadamia milk in a small saucepan or a milk steamer and pour over the cacao mixture.
4. Stir and serve immediately, sprinkled with a little extra cinnamon if desired.
