Taste: Chocolate and raspberries
Opinion: It tastes just like a chocolate-covered raspberry nouget candy from a box of chocolates - Only you are drinking it! Definitely worth the extra premium price. Plus cacao has all those beneficial extras - antioxidants, protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, iron, zinc, copper, calcium and magnesium. Per the website description, "Magnesium helps to build strong bones and is a cramp and muscle relaxant associated with feelings of bliss and calmness. Cacao is also high in sulfur, which helps form strong nails and healthy hair." Drink up!
