Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of water
  • 2 tablespoons of Grenadian cocoa powder
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 2 cloves
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 cup of milk dairy or plant-based
  • Sweetener of your choice e.g., honey, sugar, or agave syrup

Instructions
 

Boiling The Water

  • Start by gently boiling 2 cups of water in a saucepan. It’s essential to use fresh, cold water for the best results.

Adding The Cocoa

  • Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and add 2 tablespoons of Grenadian cocoa powder to the saucepan. Whisk the cocoa powder vigorously to ensure it dissolves completely.

Infusing With Spices

  • Now, it’s time to infuse the cocoa tea with delightful spices. To the saucepan, add a cinnamon stick, two cloves, a bay leaf, and 1 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg. For roughly 10 minutes, let the stew simmer over low heat to let the flavors blend.

Sweetening And Enhancements

  • Next, pour in 1 cup of milk and stir gently to incorporate it into the cocoa mixture. At this point, you can add your preferred sweetener according to your taste. Stir well until the sweetener dissolves completely.
  • If you desire more flavor, you might also think about adding a dash of vanilla essence or a pinch of ground allspice. These enhancements can elevate the taste profile of your Grenadian cocoa tea.
