Ingredients

1 c. brewed yerba mate (1 c. warm water, 1 T. loose yerba mate, I use a French press)

1 c. sesame milk (any would work, but sesame is my favorite-recipe below)

1 heaping teaspoon raw cacao powder

sweetner of choice to taste

sprinkle of cinnamon

a few grains of salt

sesame milk:

3 c. water

1/3 c. sesame seeds

10 dates (more or less to suit your tastebuds)

1 t. vanilla

few grains of salt

Recipe Directions

Blend all ingredients until well mixed and warmed by the action of the blender. Taste to adjust seasonings.

Sesame milk instructions:

Blend all ingredients until smooth. Strain through cheesecloth or use a nut milk bag. I love this milk, it doesn't separate and has a nice milk like body, more so than other milks I've made Plus sesame seeds have calcium.

Daniefon's Thoughts

By daniefon

I found a raw yerba mate at a raw restaurant in Austin, Texas. I hadn't ever had it, but now that it's getting cooler, was in the mood for something like it. I love it and this morning decided to try something different, I came up with this and love it!

Every time I post something, I never know if others will enjoy it just because I do. I am glad you did! I use cocoa powder too, i just forgot to put it in the ingredients! I will edit it now.
