This is my simple dairy free, grain free, additive free chocolate drink powder. Great for warm or cold drinks!
100g raw cacao powder (or cocoa powder) (1 cup)
230g coconut sugar (or rapadura) (1.5 cups)
2 tsp vanilla powder, or 1 vanilla bean, quartered
1. Place all ingredients in mixer bowl. Process for 1 minute/speed 7/MC on.
2. Store in an airtight glass jar or container.
Stir 1-2 tsp (according to your taste) into a glass of warm or cold milk. It will dissolve in warm milk, but if adding to cold milk it won’t really dissolve, unless you blitz it together in your TMX – I don’t bother doing this as my kids like eating it off the top then drinking the milk.
Wow!!! This is incredible!! The whole family loves it. It will be a staple in our pantry. I think I might make it for Xmas gifts too.
My kids don’t even like Milo. Smilo, on the other hand, is a double thumbs up 🙂
I just can’t get warm today and I was driving along thinking oh how nice a Milo would be but I don’t buy that any more then my lightbulb moment came “SMILO”. All I can say is “wow”! It hits the spot perfectly and so much better as I know exactly what is in it. Thank you!
I just made this after finding the milo tin empty and wanting to give the kids a healthier alternative! Testing on myself as chief tester is at school. Yum. Had to make some vanilla powder first too.
Mr 5 helped me and he has given this his tick of approval. Winning!! Thanks 🙂
I usually use cocoa, coconut cream, hot water and some honey to make Choc milk or hot chocolate. I have cacao in my pantry that hasn’t been used much at all, and have been drinking Ozechoc this past month or so as hubby came home with it, so I’ve used it. I kept the jar so I could make Smilo in it, and now wish I’d not written the recipe and instructions on the jar as noone else would notice it’s not Ozechoc otherwise. Fabulous and simple recipe! Very yummy taste!
I just saw this exact recipe and comments on someone’s Facebook page.
Which Facebook page was it please?
I made this today. Was worried my kids wouldn’t drink it. They LOVED it and asked for MORE. We have had it hot and cold…divine! Thanks for a quick delicious recipe. 🙂
Kids love love love this! Used it in frappes for an extra special treat 🙂
Just made your Smilo and got the thumbs up from my son! Much healthier than milo!
