I actually got the idea for this drink from a recipe I found through the Sunny Raw Kitchen site. The recipe was called “Best Coffee Ever”. It was very good, but a little too thick, and strong. So, I made some changes after many trial and errors with the recipe. I finally came up with this rendition, which I truly found delicious! I hope you do too.

One note: I recommend you use “heaping” scoops of the raw cacao powder, and heaping tablespoons of the raw carob. It’s okay to use a little more of both then not.

I saw this a long time ago in a hippie cookbook, but it used sugar. Once I brought it to a party where everyone was heavy drinkers and to my shock, everyone drank this before they touched the alcohol! Need I saw more? It is refreshing and will make you just a bit giddy! Put this into a transparent pitcher, it looks so pretty and will impress your friends with minimum effort!

This is a HEAVENLY ice cream! Luv says it tastes like the Brazil Nut Chocolate Gelato that she tried at Whole Foods before we went RAW. Very Yummy! Hope you like it.

My seeds are a lot less expensive than my almonds and it’s nice to change it up a bit!

I also like to refer this to “strawberry water”, a perfect light summertime drink!

This is a very sweet and delicious treat to have. I love making Heidi Ohlunder’s basic raw Vanilla Iced Cream to eat, and it tastes great in this shake! But you could use any raw Vanilla Iced Cream recipe available.

Who knew you can make something that so resembles the classic? And without the use of nut milk too! And yet, the first time I tasted this with cinnamon, I thought, “Hmmm… tastes like Christmas.” And my grandmother said, “Hmmm… if a person didn’t know better, they would think this is watered down cow milk.” To which I replied, “Like skim milk?!”

This is my first good attempt at trying to make a Raw Coca-Cola. I had a taste for a 7-11 Coke Slurpee last week and I thought – I really gotta work on the Raw Coke recipe.

My bf said this came pretty close so I posting for you all to enjoy. I plan to improve it by adding some sasaprilla to the recipe -when I can find some! :)

Update: I made this with sassaprilla powder (you can buy at mountainroseherbs.com) and it helps with the bitterness of the kola nut. I also changed the cinammon, added lemon juice and agave nectar and increased the vanilla.

This is my “in progress” version of raw Root Beer. I will adding other ingredients in the future to get even a better root-y taste but this turned out pretty tasty!
