Make and drink this hot chocolate to bring a moment of calm to your day. The combination of calming rose water and CBD oil is here to balance blissful cacao and both taste equally comforting. However, since cacao itself is a stimulant, this is one to avoid near bedtime if you have trouble sleeping.

Ingredients

  • 30 g (¼ cup) almonds, soaked for at least 2 hours in hot water
  • 100 ml (scant

Method

Rinse the almonds very well and then transfer them to a high powered food processor or blender with all the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. If your blender is not high powered, you will need to pass the mixture through a nut milk bag or fine sieve.

Once the mixture is blended, either warm through in a saucepan over a low heat, or keep cool and serve over ice.
