  • 1 cup plant-based cream
  • 2 tablespoons high-quality cocoa powder (natural)
  • 2 tablespoons sweetener of choice (natural), such as maple syrup, agave nectar, or coconut sugar

  2. Add the Flavor Enhancers: Pour in grape juice, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and vanilla extract (natural). These add layers of complexity and elevate the flavor profile beyond traditional chocolate drinks.
  3. Incorporate the Natural Gelling Agent: Sprinkle the natural gelling agent evenly and blend again to ensure it integrates completely, giving the mocktail a perfect thick and creamy texture.

Notes

  • Use high-quality cocoa powder to achieve deep, rich chocolate flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness gradually, tasting as you go, to balance the cocoa bitterness.
  • Add ice cubes just before serving to maintain creaminess without watering down the flavors.
  • Experiment with different plant-based creams for varied textures and subtle flavor notes.
  • Use fresh vanilla extract (natural) to amplify the warmth and comforting aroma of the mocktail.
