Bulletproof® Cocoa Hot or Cold
Drinking rich cocoa is an effortless way to add fat to your macros.
This fat-burning cocoa performs steaming hot or chilled over ice. Freeze your cocoa into a full-fledged pop or ice cream.
Having almost no carbs, the recipe also works as a liquid fat bomb and Atkins fat fast recipe.
What Makes it Fat-Burning?
Grass-fed butter and Dave Asprey’s special ingredient: energizing Brain Octane® oil.
Dave’s Brain Octane® oil absorbs rapidly, changing into ketone bodies immediately – providing instant energy to the brain and four times the ketone energy of coconut oil.
This keto cocoa recipe is a modified spin of Dave’s original Bulletproof® Coffee recipe.
