Servings: 1 drink
Calories: 48kcal
Ingredients
- 1/2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 tbsp powdered erythritol see notes 3 + 4 for more options
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk see notes 1 + 2 for more options
Instructions
- Add the cocoa powder and powdered erythritol to the bottom of an 8-10oz glass.
- Add a splash of milk to the glass and mix the ingredients to form a paste.
- Keep adding a little milk at a time and mixing until it becomes more liquid.
- Once the mixture is runny, add the rest of the milk and more to top up if needed.
- Stir well and drink immediately or chill in the fridge for later.
Notes
- Milk: I always use unsweetened almond milk, however, Coconut milk (carton or canned and blended), Cashew milk, Macadamia milk, Hemp milk, Flax milk, Pea milk, Soy milk, and Double or single cream cut with water are all keto-friendly options, perfect for this recipe (all unsweetened). If you have another keto-friendly milk that you prefer, go ahead and use that.
- Make it creamier by swapping half of the almond milk for heavy cream.
- Only have granulated sweetener on hand? Mix the granulated sweetener with 1 tablespoon of hot water in a mug to make syrup, and then follow the recipe as written. You may want to add a couple of ice cubes to make it cold.
- Liquid sweetener: Mix the cocoa powder with milk as per the recipe instructions, and add a few drops of liquid sweetener at the end to taste.
- Add protein powder and blend it in a high-speed blender with ice to make a healthy milkshake!
- If you have leftover chocolate milk, store it in the fridge for up to 4 days. This keto chocolate milk does not separate and holds up well for a few days in the fridge.
- You can make this in a pitcher and store it for later. Just quadruple the recipe: 2tbsp cocoa powder, 6 tbsp powdered erythritol, 4 cups of milk + more milk to top up.
- You can premake the keto chocolate milk powder and store it in an airtight container. Add 1/2 cup of cocoa powder to 1.5 cups of erythritol. When you're ready to have chocolate milk just add 2 tbsp of the mix to a glass, and continue the recipe as before from instruction #2.
