National Cocoa Day with Rawmio Drinking Hot Chocolate Mix (Recipes!)

It's National Cocoa Day Saturday Dec 12th! But maybe it's one of those (maybe rare?) days when just a subtle hint of chocolate will do...try infusing a matcha green tea latte with a sprinkling of our Rawmio Drinking Hot Chocolate Mix. In true Rawmio fashion, this unique, artisan-crafted drinking chocolate mix is raw, stone ground, made with single origin, fairly traded Peruvian cacao, and it's sweetened with unrefined coconut sap sugar - never cane sugar or agave. You can sprinkle it on literally any hot beverage for that perfect touch of melted raw chocolate (try it on your next latte - hello next level mocha!). For matcha lovers, simply use your favorite recipe - or try ours below which we've been obsessed with lately.
