One of my favorite things about this homemade nut milk recipe is that it doesn’t require a nut milk bag, straining, or any fancy equipment. You only need a blender and ingredients to have Homemade Chocolate Hemp Seed Milk!

Chocolate Hemp Seed Milk Ingredients

This ingredient list is short, sweet, and so delicious! These are ingredients that are really easy to keep on hand, so you can have a fresh glass of Chocolate Hemp Seed Milk anytime the chocolate craving hits.

• Cocoa powder (unsweetened, go for good quality here… look for a dark brown color)
• Shelled hemp seeds (also known as hemp hearts(
• Medjool dates (you can also sweeten with a bit of maple syrup if you prefer!)
• Vanilla extract

All About Hemp Seeds

Shelled hemp seeds, or hemp hearts, are a really great way to add plant-based protein and essential fatty acids to your diet. They have a nutty flavor that is SO delicious paired with the cocoa! I love how they make a recipe instantly more hearty and filling while boosting the nutrition. Hemp seeds also contain vitamin E, potassium, iron, and calcium. Hemp seeds are also high in dietary fiber, making them good for your digestive health!

Health Benefits of Cocoa Powder

Unsweetened cocoa powder is made by roasting and grinding cocoa beans. Years of nutrition research has shown that chocolate may provide health benefits from antioxidants called flavanols found in the cocoa solids. When consumed in large amounts, studies have shown that flavanols in chocolate may lower blood pressure, promote lung and brain health, and even improve your mood (I know I’m always happy when I’m eating chocolate!). Look for cocoa powder that’s a vibrant dark brown color. I love Whole Foods 365 organic unsweetened cocoa powder the best!

This Chocolate Hemp Seed Milk is vegan (dairy-free!), gluten-free, nut-free, paleo and refined sugar-free. It’s a sweet treat that anyone with any allergy can enjoy! I hope you’ll tag me on Instagram if you make this, and drop a review below to help others find the recipe as well!
