02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by combining the tapioca and chia seeds in a pot, then add enough water to cover them. Let this soak for at least an hour until it becomes thick and jelly-like. Next, stir in the coconut milk, palm sugar, cocoa powder, arrowroot powder, and a pinch of salt. Place the pot over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the mixture thickens to your liking—this usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Once it’s ready, take the pot off the heat and mix in the vanilla. Give it a final stir, then let it cool a bit before serving.
