EQUAL EXCHANGE Organic Spicy Hot Cocoa, 12 OZ

Great

This is very spicy. I love cinnamon in my hot chocolate but this is another level. In powder form it smells really good. I mixed it with regular hot chocolate to cool it down a bit but I under estimated how spicy it is. If you’re kind of a spice fun just use half a teaspoon of the spicy hot chocolate and regular hot chocolate and it’ll be really good. My husband who loves spicy stuff he says it’s like a chili pepper put it in and it’s ok. Texture is great. Smell of it is great. Flavor is dependent on how much you love spice or not. Start with half a teaspoon first and work your way up.

This is my personal favorite for hot chocolate ... but alas, I gave up sugar last year. Waited until my last can was consumed though! Personally, I love the Cayenne. However, I never use as much of a product as recommended on the label ... and I mixed mine with whole milk and/or raw whole milk (when I can get it). I fixed it to my personal taste ... some days I added more ... some days less. On days where I felt like more of a deeper taste, I added everything from unsweetened chocolate to semi-sweet chocolate chips. Real Vanilla is also good. But ... due to health concerns I gave up all sugar and 99% of carbohydrates. Improved health and reduction in pain was almost immediate, and quite frankly unbelievable. In less than two weeks my fibro pain and arthritis pain were noticeably better. I'm off all pain medication now, my energy has greatly improved, stabilized blood sugar, and I'm sleeping like a baby again. C This is in no way a slam on this hot chocolate. It is one of the things I really miss. I just wish they would make one without sugar ... or sweeteners of any kind. Leave it to the consumer to add their preferred sweetener of choice. But I'll probably have to come up with my own recipe. Until then I got some Cayenne sauce for my eggs. In the meantime, I'll probably order more as gifts. Everyone I have shared this with has loved it.

Surprisingly, the cocoa is not only good but actually spicy. The flavor is not overly powerful but you know the spicy flavor is present. It is well done in my book.

This is good but it's pretty spicy

This stuff is so damn good. It's the perfect hint of spice. If they ever put out a monkfruit version, I'd be their number one customer

If someone is looking for sweet cocoa this is not sweet. Spicy. I like it.

I loved the creamy, rich chocolate flavor combined with the bite of the cayenne pepper. They balance each other off very well. This is my new favorite hot chocolate.
