whispermewell's video: Whisper 24: Raw Coconut Almond Milk Recipe and Raw Chocolate Drink Recipe

Hi everybody! I describe how to make a basic raw coconut/almond milk recipe. Then I describe how to make a raw chocolate drink out of it. By raw I mean that none of the ingredients have been heated above 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 degrees Celsius) This is supposed to preserve the nutritional value and natural integrity of food. Cacao and chocolate have caffein-like properties that are stimulating and can interfere with your ability to get to sleep. If you want to avoid this you can replace the cacao powder with carob powder which has a chocolate-like taste but no stimulating caffein-like properties. I felt I needed to mention this because many people have trouble sleeping, particularly in the whisper community, and I wouldn't want to recommend anything that would interfere with your ability to sleep. If you do use cacao powder I recommend that you avoid drinking it late in the day. As a general rule I try to eat cacao and chocolate products before 2pm so it doesn't interfere with my sleep. But like I said if you substitute carob powder for the cacao powder in this recipe you can drink it late in the day with no worries. If you don't want to make a chocolate drink out of the almond milk you can always just drink the almond milk straight but it probably won't be sweet enough for most people unless a few dates are blended into the strained milk as a final step. Enjoy! :-) Image Credits: http://nature.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/646743/
