    Special Diet Notes & Options: Casablanca Vegan Hot Cocoa

    By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, egg-free, gluten-free, peanut-free, soy-free, vegan, and vegetarian.

    For a tree nut-free and vegan hot cocoa, you can use sunflower seed butter in place of the cashew. It will add a different flavor vibe and be a touch less creamy, but tasty in its own right.

      Hi Alisa,
      This looks delicious! Of course we’ll adapt it for our nut-free friends with SunButter, but the mint and dates sounds like a marvelous combination. Thanks for the inspiration!
