Cacao Husk Tea

Cacao Husk Tea

🍫Cacao husks contain a large amount of phenolic acids which have tremendous antioxidant activity as well as other health benefits (like antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic etc.) and carry all the chocolate flavor that we love so much. 

This drink can be taken hot on a cold winter day or served over ice on a beautiful sunny day.

Make a large pitcher and keep it in the fridge for 3 days, so you always have a healthy drink on hand.
