West Hollywood moves fast: early pilates, back-to-back meetings on Sunset, dinner on Santa Monica Boulevard. Ceremonial cacao is a way to bring a little calm into that pace. Alma Cacao is 100% whole cacao from single-origin Peru, melted into a rich cup that lifts you gently instead of all at once. Shop ceremonial cacao.
A calmer cup for a busy city
Maybe your morning starts with a class on Melrose, a walk through West Hollywood Park or a hike up Runyon Canyon before the heat. Then the day fills up. Cacao's main stimulant is theobromine, which rises over an hour or two and fades slowly, so it pairs well with a full calendar. Because it lingers, most people keep their cup to the morning or early afternoon.
How people drink it
- As a morning ritual: 20 to 30 grams whisked into hot water and sipped slowly before the day starts.
- As a latte: blended with oat or almond milk and a pinch of cinnamon.
- Before a class: a smaller cup, around 15 grams, about an hour ahead.
