INSPIRATION FROM OUR COFFEE BAR PARTNERS
Working with some of the coolest coffee bars, the need arose to create a drink that is warm and satisfying (like a cappuccino or hot chocolate) yet would drive 'elixir' drinkers nuts. Enter our Peruvian friend Marco who brought maca from a very cool co op of organic farmers; we blended it with Hayashi San's micro-milled organic hojicha... Our bar team (some of which are baristas too) served as our first round of guinea pigs; the drink was fire!
