How to Prepare Healthy Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate [Vegan]

Boil your water using a kettle or a saucepan on the stove.
Add all the ingredients to a high-speed blender, including the hot water. Blend for 30 seconds until smooth and frothy. Serve immediately.

Notes

- If using unsalted peanut butter, add a small pinch of salt before blending. - For a lighter peanut butter taste, start with one level tablespoon, taste, and add more as needed. I like to use one rounded tablespoon. - If you use a strong blender, you shouldn't have any pieces of dates or cashews in your drink. If your blender is on the weaker side, try straining your drink with a nut-milk bag or a fine-mesh sieve. - If you're used to a sweeter drink, add more dates or substitute for the desired amount of maple syrup or honey.
