Single-origin, sustainably produced Peruvian cacao is at the center of the newest launch from Willa's Kitchen, a dark chocolate oat milk beverage that was created with Raaka Chocolate. The co-branded beverage shares the benefits of Willa's unique milling process, which uses the whole oat for a result that provides more protein, fiber and nutrients with less sugar.
The wholesome and deliciously dark chocolate oat milk drink is only made with a handful of simple ingredients, including filtered water, organic whole-grain oats and nutritious organic cacao powder, plus organic maple sugar, organic vanilla extract and a hint of sea salt to round out the flavor and texture. According to the company, the dairy-free drink is said to have a "bright, brownie-like flavor."
