Description
This is the ultimate cozy drink for a lazy weekend morning! This is not your average mocha, either- it’s packed with healthy fats from cashews and coconut butter, and it gets its sweetness from Medjool dates instead of sugar. Spice it up with some cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne, and you have yourself one healthy beverage.
