Pumpkin Spice Cacao Bliss

Pumpkin Spice Cacao Bliss

Here is a twist on the timeless fall favorite: the pumpkin spice latte. While it may be surprisingly contentious, celebrated by some, and humorously mocked by others, here at Xula, we wholeheartedly embrace it. 

Our unique Pumpkin Spice Cacao Bliss combines the soothing attributes of cacao and CBD to elevate your sipping experience, cocooning you in a layer of relaxation and serenity.

Moreover, cacao's rich iron content makes it an ideal choice, especially for individuals going through menstruation. Simultaneously, the inclusion of spices, particularly ginger and nutmeg, brings their reputation for warming effects and potential relief from menstrual cramps.

However, what truly distinguishes this drink is the deliberate pairing with "calm + clarity." The harmonious interplay between the rose-infused "calm + clarity" and the cacao is genuinely enchanting. These ingredients unite to create an uplifting and heartwarming experience, transforming your sips into an aromatic journey that nurtures both your senses and your overall well-being

Ingredients:

  • 100% Organic Cacao:
    • 2 tablespoons of high-quality organic cacao powder

    • Find a cozy spot, sip on your Pumpkin Spice Cacao Elixir, and let the comforting flavors and soothing properties work their magic. 

Remember that the joy of crafting your own elixir goes beyond this recipe. It's an invitation to embrace your inner culinary magician, where you can stir in your favorite spices, try different milk alternatives, or even add a pinch of your own secret ingredients. Let this pumpkin spice latte serve as your canvas for concocting the perfect fall potion that suits your unique taste and needs. So, whether you're sipping it for a moment of calm during your monthly cycle, celebrating the season, or just for the sheer pleasure of exploration, let your pumpkin spice latte be the beginning of your own delicious, autumnal adventure.
