Raw cacao is made from unprocessed and unroasted cacao powder.
Raw cacao not only offers a smooth chocolate flavour but is also rich in antioxidants, particularly flavonoids, which may help combat oxidative stress and nourish the skin. It contains essential minerals such as magnesium, promoting heart health and supporting mood. Additionally, raw cacao is a good source of healthy fats and fibre, supporting digestive health.
Chaga
Known as the “mushroom of immortality,” Chaga has long been cherished in Northern European and Siberian traditions for resilience and vitality. Rich in antioxidants like polyphenols and melanin, it helps the body adapt to daily stressors. Its beta-glucans have been researched for their potential to support balanced immune function, while its earthy depth works to nourish energy and the skin’s natural radiance.
Our Chaga is 100% fruiting body, ensuring potency and maximum benefit in every cup.
Beetroot
Beetroot offers numerous benefits for skin health, thanks to its rich antioxidant content and ability to support healthy circulation. By encouraging nutrient delivery to the skin, beetroot helps promote a naturally radiant complexion.
Additionally, beetroot is high in vitamins and minerals that help detoxify the skin and enhance its elasticity. We use an intensely delicious organic beetroot powder that adds depth, richness, and a velvety texture, making it an excellent addition to our formulation, for nourishing the skin.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon, a cherished culinary spice and Ayurvedic remedy for centuries, is known for its ability to support healthy blood sugar balance. Its natural sweetness helps reduce the need for added sugars, while its warm, comforting flavour and aroma make it a beloved ingredient.
Cinnamon is also rich in antioxidants, potentially benefiting heart health and brain function. We've added our organic cinnamon to enhance both flavour and health benefits.
Baobab
Native to Africa, Baobab is a remarkable fruit that naturally dehydrates on the branch, preserving its nutrients without the need for heat or pasteurisation. As a result, baobab powder is exceptionally nutrient-dense, often boasting three times more vitamin C than an orange and nearly 50% fibre.
Our organic baobab has a subtle, sweet-tangy flavour and adds a creamy texture.
Pink Himalayan Salt
Protected by snow and ice, Himalayan pink salt remains untouched by modern pollution, making it one of the purest salts on Earth. More than just sodium, it contains essential electrolyte minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, along with an impressive array of trace minerals.
True Collagen provides easily digestible, highly absorbable and clinically researched Type I hydrolysed bovine collagen peptides that blend effortlessly into both hot and cold drinks.
Our True MCT oil provides a beautifully balanced blend of 60% C8 (caprylic acid) and 40% C10 (capric acid) which is clean, light and flavourless. Entirely sourced from coconuts with no palm oil.
Cacao meets Chaga in a union of antioxidants - plant compounds that help protect cells from daily stress and support the body’s natural resilience. Every sip enriches your system, helping you feel steady, nourished, and ready to meet the demands of modern life.
Heart opening
Ancient Maya called cacao 'heart-opening.' Scientifically, compunds theobromine widens blood vessels, stimulating the heart, while phenylethylamine elevates mood. Symbolically, cacao's ritual use fosters a sacred connection, enhancing self-love and opening the heart chakra.

FAQs
What are Chaga mushrooms, and why do you use them in this blend?
If you loved the taste of Cacao + Reishi, you’ll love this new blend. While Reishi and hops offered a distinct, bitter depth, Chaga mushroom powder brings a smoother, creamier flavour profile with equally powerful adaptogenic and antioxidant qualities. The result is a balanced, antioxidant-rich ritual - deeply functional and beautifully drinkable.
What does Cacao+ Chaga taste like?
Neither too sweet nor too bitter, this warming cacao's slightly bitter taste perfectly demonstrates the power of the potent chaga mushrooms used to bring this soothing ritual to life. If you prefer a sweeter taste, simply add a little honey or maple syrup.
Are the Chaga mushrooms used in this blend adaptogenic?
Yes, Chaga is an adaptogenic mushroom which has been shown to help regulate immune function, blood sugar and cholesterol. Rich in antioxidants, particularly polyphenols and melanin, Chaga also contains polysaccharides. These act as a prebiotic, making Cacao + Chaga the perfect addition to your resilience rituals.
Can I take this product alongside other Ancient + Brave products?
Absolutely. We recommend enjoying this product alongside any of our collagen products of your choice. You can also add a serving of MCT oil for a little extra creaminess and fuel.
Is Cacao + Chaga suitable for vegans and vegetarians?
Yes, this product is part of our vegan ritual collection and is 100% collagen-free.
When is the best time to drink Cacao + Chaga?
With Chaga to energise and cacao to ground and soothe, this ritual can be enjoyed at any time of day. If you are caffeine sensitive, you may prefer to enjoy it earlier in the day, that’s because cacao contains a small amount of caffeine.
Can you drink it daily?
Yes, Cacao + Chaga contains 1500mg of Chaga per serving; therefore, we recommend having no more than 1 serving per day.
How do you prepare Cacao + Chaga?
You can consume Cacao + Chaga daily, alongside other Ancient + Brave products. To prepare your ritual, simply add 10g Cacao + Chaga powder to a cup and mix with a little hot water. Then stir in a warm milk of your choice.
Is this product suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women?
You should always consult your doctor or midwife regarding any new additions to your diet or supplements you take during your pregnancy and breastfeeding journey. Although Chaga has been used for centuries, it is not advised for pregnant women at high doses, and more research needs to be conducted to determine ‘safe levels’ and therefore, we urge caution until then.
