Coconut Caramel Cocoa

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 Tbsp water
• 1 cup canned light coconut milk
• 2 tsp cocoa powder (we used Green and Black)
• (optional) vegan marshmallows

1. Bring sugar and water to boil in a heavy saucepan.  Cook 5 minutes or so until starting to brown.  You can swirl the pan, but do not stir.
2. Reduce heat to low and slowly whisk in the coconut milk*.  Continuing to whisk, add cocoa powder to pot and continue to mix until homogenous.  *If your caramel seizes up, don’t panic!  Just bring the liquid back to a boil and continue to carefully whisk until everything has reached a liquid state.
3. Pour into two mugs and top with marshmallows if desired.

This was so good that I gasped when I took my first sip.  Pretty please, make this at home so you can fall in love too!
