Product Notes:
Many people find that the caffeine in coffee can make them jittery or hyperactive and then lead to a "crash" in energy and focus levels when it wears off. Black Maca can be a great alternative to that, providing a subtler energy boost that can last for many hours before subsiding gently, while also helping to improve mood and possibly even libido.
Of course, this cannot be considered a caffeine-free drink mix, since it contains a good deal of cacao (or what most of us call cocoa) powder. However, it should be borne in mind that the primary stimulant in cacao is theobromine (which has a similar arc of sustained energy without inducing a crash), not caffeine, and that a cup of hot chocolate from cacao powder only has about one third of the caffeine of a cup of coffee, and that the caffeine in cacao powder is accompanied by cacao butter and other compounds which slow down the rate of its absorption and reduce that spiking effect.

Suggested Usage:
Use one tablespoon for every four ounces of hot water (or hot milk, to be more like traditional hot chocolate). It can also be blended into iced drinks and smoothies or used in raw desserts, or sprinkled on as a dessert topping. (Some describe it as having a delicate caramel/butterscotch flavour.) For other delicious flavour combinations, try blending it with coconut oil and nut butters, or sprinkle on some cinnamon.
