I’m so excited to be sharing this recipe with you! It’s becoming one of my favourite afternoon drinks as it’s warming and so filling too. I have to start by pointing out that this recipe makes three servings of 190g each. That’s a small mug serving (the average mug size is 300g), so if you’re low carb/ ketogenic be careful when dishing it out. If you’re not low carb you can fill your mug up as much as you like, but be warned, it’s very filling and too much will be a bit sickly!
