I crush the nibs lightly if they came as nibs. Cacao beans will need to be coarsely ground (not finely ground).

Place crushed cacao in the bottom of a French press.

Add boiling water and steep ten minutes. Press down press and serve.

Alternatively, stir crushed cacao into boiling water and steep ten minutes. Strain through a fine sieve or coffee filter and serve hot.

Can drink black or add cream and sugar as desired. Same as coffee or hot tea.
