Instructions

  1. Use commercially prepared, food-grade smooth peanut butter; check freshness and allergen labels.
  2. Blend the signature nut or seed ingredient with milk and honey until smooth.
  3. Add ice and vanilla and blend briefly until cold; strain only if traditionally appropriate and desired.
  4. For this original cocoa adaptation, add 10 g unsweetened cocoa powder to the prepared base and stir or blend until evenly dispersed; if it is a spice or chopped solid, hydrate, infuse or melt it in the warm phase, then strain if necessary.
  5. Pour into two glasses; serve promptly.
