I have reviewed a mere fraction of the items. This cocoa is worthy of my time. I put in a small Bodun French press, because I wanted one cup to try. I added a tabsp of heavy whipping cream and frothed it with a handheld mini frother. This is a fantastic cup of happiness to start my day. It is like a homemade cup of cocoa I might make for an honored guest after a day on the ski slopes! I didn't even add sugar. It is that good! I am going to reinvent the Ned Flanders Cocoa Recipe so it's low calorie and even happier. (Serves 1) Ingredients: 1 cup whole milk (or your preferred milk) 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder 1-2 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste) 1/4 tsp vanilla extract Pinch of salt Whipped cream (optional) Chocolate shavings or sprinkles (optional) Marshmallows (because Flanders would!) Instructions: Heat the Milk: In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the milk until it's steaming but not boiling. Mix Cocoa and Sugar: In a separate bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, and salt. Combine: Add a couple of tablespoons of the hot milk to the cocoa mixture and stir until smooth, forming a paste. Add to Milk: Pour the cocoa paste back into the saucepan, stirring continuously. Flavor: Add the vanilla extract and continue stirring until everything is well combined and heated through. Serve: Pour into your favorite mug, top with whipped cream, marshmallows, and maybe a sprinkle of chocolate. Bonus Ned Flanders Touch: Serve it with a cheerful smile and perhaps a “Hi-diddly-ho!” Review: Delicious, but a bit of an acquired taste - I'm a recent "convert." I haven't been able to drink coffee for a decade because it gives me severe stomach aches. I was delighted to find this alternative for a drink that is more assertive than tea but not as rich as hot chocolate or chai latte. I tried the Ghana French Roast and the Ghana Light Roast. The French Roast reminds me more of coffee with a bit of a burnt taste. The Light Roast is smoother and less bitter. Both are good, but my favorite brew is 3 parts Light Roast and 1 part French Roast! I should also say that the taste has grown on me--I found it OK the first time, and now I think it's delicious and have several cups a day. It's like trying beer or tonic water for the first time... you have to acquire the taste. On its own this beverage has a coffee-like consistency, and tastes bitter. I prefer to drink it with a little sugar and a bit of coconut or almond creamer. I've also added vanilla extract and maca powder for tasty variations. It's very nice both hot and iced. I brew a double-batch and save a portion in the fridge to drink cold. Very refreshing. If you cool it in the fridge make sure to shake or stir well before drinking because the "sludge" that pools in the bottom is the tastiest part. I use a French Press to brew it and I like the results. I only wish coffee shops would offer it on their menus too (I can't always brew and bring it with me on the go). EDITED TO ADD: Beware, this is habit forming! I now can't go a day without one or two cups. ## Features - BREWS LIKE COFFEE TASTES LIKE CHOCOLATE Roasted, ground, and brewed like coffee this cacao coffee alternative has the flavor and aroma of unsweetened pure dark chocolate.

I had the light roast and i liked it.** A: Ghana French has a much bolder, coffee-like taste, whereas the Ecuador Light has a very dark chocolate taste w/ fruity notes. **Q: Can this be used in a coffeemaker?** A: I have used a Keurig cup with this and it works but I prefer French Press because it gives extra seeping time. I'm sure it will work in a coffee maker but the taste will be lacking. **Q: Can I use a percolator and how much per cup?** A: Yes same as regular coffee 1tbs per 6 oz water **Q: The description says cacao beans but the bag says cocoa beans. What is the difference?** A: Cacao is raw unprocessed beans and cocoa is processed beans ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just amazing *by D***H on March 18, 2025* In 27 years I have received thousands of Amazon orders.

It has a bold, earthy profile with subtle woodsy undertones. However, buyers should know that it does not body or taste exactly like coffee—it has a much lighter, more watery consistency than a standard cup of coffee. I found that letting it steep in my French press for a full 8 to 10 minutes (longer than the bag suggests) results in a much richer flavor. It's an excellent, healthy superfood drink packed with antioxidants, but there is a slight learning curve to brewing it perfectly ## Frequently Bought Together - Crio Bru Ghana French Roast 10 oz Bag | Natural Healthy Brewed Cacao Drink | Great Substitute to Herbal Tea and Coffee | 99% Caffeine Free Gluten Free Low Calorie Honest Energy Brew And Enjoy Hot or Iced - Crio Bru Brewed Cacao Double Chocolate Light Roast - Coffee Alternative Natural Healthy Drink | 100% Pure Ground Cacao Beans | 99.99% Caffeine Free, Keto, Low Carb, Paleo, Brew And Enjoy Hot or Iced (10oz) - Crio Bru Ecuador French Roast 10oz Bag | Organic Healthy Brewed Cacao Drink | Great Substitute to Herbal Tea and Coffee | 99% Caffeine Free Gluten Free Low Calorie Honest Energy Brew And Enjoy Hot or Iced --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/25039946-crio-bru-ghana-french-roast-10-oz-bag-brewed-cacao](https://www.desertcart.us/products/25039946-crio-bru-ghana-french-roast-10-oz-bag-brewed-cacao) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
