Peppermint Hot Cacao with Hormone Healing Cacao Drank Mix

First, prepare the Hormone Healing Cacao Drank Mix:

1. Add 1/4 cup cacao powder, 1 tbsp maca powder, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 tsp cayenne (optional), and a pinch of salt into a small mason jar.
2. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined. This mix can easily be doubled or tripled for future use.

To make the Peppermint Hot Cacao:

1. Warm 8-10 oz of your preferred plant-based milk (e.g., unsweetened soy milk).
2. In a mug, combine 1 tbsp of the prepared hot cacao mix with the warmed plant-based milk and 1 tsp maple syrup.
3. Stir until all ingredients are well dissolved and combined.
4. Top generously with whipped cream (this step is not optional for maximum enjoyment!) and sprinkle with a few crushed candy cane pieces for garnish.
5. Enjoy your comforting Peppermint Hot Cacao!
