Snickerdoodle drinking chocolate, brown butter and warm cinnamon, with a ginger kick waiting at the bottom of the mug.

Description

Brown butter and warm cinnamon warm the milk first, familiar as the cookie, thick enough to coat the spoon. Then the back room opens up: a zero-alcohol cane-spirit heat, fresh ginger with real bite, a trace of sassafras you’ll chase through the whole cup. Reach for the tin on a cold slow morning; drop a melt bar in a travel mug and stir for the road. Crown it with whipped cream, spike it for a nightcap, or snap a Suga Bark shard in for crunch against the heat. Starts like the cinnamon you know. Ends somewhere warmer and a little wilder.

Ingredients

Cocoa powder, cane sugar, condensed-milk solids, cocoa butter, brown-butter solids, Saigon cinnamon, brown sugar, cachaça flavoring, fresh ginger essence, sassafras extract (trace), vanilla.

Allergen Information

Contains milk. Produced in a facility that also handles eggs, wheat, soy, tree nuts, peanuts, and sesame.

Storage

Liquid Assets is a dry shelf product until you add heat. Keep the tin and the bars cool, dark, and sealed — a pantry at 60–70°F (16–21°C), away from the stove, away from a sunny window. Best within 12 months of the seal date. The tin re-seals; press it shut and the mix keeps its bloom. The chevron bars can wear a pale gray cocoa bloom if they warm up and re-set — that's cocoa butter surfacing, not spoilage, and it melts out clean the second it hits hot milk. Once you've prepared a cup, drink it hot; it doesn't keep and it won't wait. Cinnamon settles to the bottom of the tin over time; a quick shake before scooping evens it back out.

Dietary

Vegetarian. Gluten-free. Non-GMO. No artificial colors. No high-fructose corn syrup. Contains dairy. Alcohol-free — cachaça is a flavor note from a food-grade extract.

Sustainability

Matte cocoa tins are steel, refillable and endlessly recyclable. Melt-bar window boxes come from recycled paperboard, printed with soy-based inks, the window film compostable where the supplier offers it. Turquoise foil seals are food-grade and aluminum-free where sourced. Cocoa bought whole and ground in-house; dairy solids from regional partners; spices and nuts worked from raw, never bought pre-blended. No artificial colors. No high-fructose corn syrup. The color in the cup is cocoa, cream, fruit, or nut doing the work. Cinnamon, sugar, and butter carry it; sassafras and ginger in trace, cachaça in reduction. Pantry economics, jewelry-counter pour.
