In this delicious herbal hot cacao contributed by Wellness Consultant, Jaime Lynn Ruiz, Shilajit is combined with Ashwaghanda and Rhodiola, two herbs known for their ability to support energy, hormones and stress reduction.

If you are pure vegan, you can substitute the honey in this cacao drink recipe for maple syrup, agave or monk fruit sweetener.
