Electrolyte hot cocoa sounds strange until you remember that salt and chocolate are old friends. Whisking a serving of Saltivate Raw Unflavored into warm cocoa deepens the chocolate flavor the same way a pinch of salt does in baking, while quietly adding 800mg of sodium to a mug you were going to enjoy anyway.
This five minute recipe earns its keep in cold weather: after winter hikes, ski days, or any evening when an iced electrolyte drink holds zero appeal. Raw Unflavored contains no sugar and no sweeteners, so the only sweetness in the mug is the honey you stir in yourself. Whisk thoroughly so the cocoa stays smooth, and drink it while it is warm.
Whisk a serving of Raw Unflavored into your hot cocoa. The salt deepens the chocolate.
