Ashwagandha Hot Chocolate

SERVES 2

READY IN 5 MINUTES


This Ashwagandha Hot Chocolate is the ultimate way to relax. Why not boost your hot chocolate with the benefits of ashwagandha, an adaptogenic plant thought to help relax the mind and support mental wellbeing.

While Adaptogens have been used for years within the ancient practices of Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine they are growing in popularity for their ability to induce balance and harmony when dealing with the ups and downs of a hectic life.
