The Libido Boosting Cacao Elixir Recipe
Are you ready to up your libido and add in medicinal mushrooms and herbal tonics to your health regime?
Perhaps you want to give up coffee but have no clue what you’d replace it with?
Want to drink a delicious hot nutritious cacao elixir in the colder weather?
I have just the thing for you! A few months ago I gave up coffee - I noticed that when I drank it (which was very regularly), I felt anxious and unable to focus. I also felt more irritable and moody. So, I decided to go cold turkey and take it out of my daily rituals. I replaced it with a hot cacao drink, full of organic cacao, medicinal mushrooms and tonic herbs. All of the ingredients used are full of amazing nutrition and magic that leaves me feeling energised (a very similar pick-me-up to coffee), without the nasty side effects of coffee! The bonus of the mushrooms and herbs is that they are known to boost libido (and hey, we all want a healthy sex drive, right!).
