7. Cacao Husk Tea

CACAO HUSK TEA

Discover a lighter way to experience cacao.

Alche-me Cacao Husk Tea is a delicate botanical infusion made from the outer shells of cacao beans. Naturally aromatic and chocolatey, the husks create a light, smooth and comforting tea with the distinctive flavour and character of cacao.

Naturally containing theobromine and polyphenols, this gentle cacao infusion offers a beautiful alternative to coffee or traditional tea — perfect for slow mornings, afternoon pauses and everyday moments of presence.

When steeped in hot water, cacao husks release subtle notes of chocolate with a naturally smooth, earthy flavour. More delicate than a traditional cacao drink, Cacao Husk Tea offers a simple way to bring cacao into your everyday routine.

NATURALLY NOURISHING

Cacao husks naturally contain polyphenols and theobromine, compounds found within cacao and part of its distinctive nutritional profile.

Theobromine contributes to cacao’s characteristic gentle stimulation, while the husks retain naturally occurring plant compounds from the cacao bean.

The result is a beautifully light infusion that feels gently uplifting — perfect for moments of focus, presence and connection.

FROM CACAO TO CUP — WITH LESS WASTE

The cacao husk is the protective outer shell surrounding each cacao bean.

Rather than being discarded after the beans are processed, these aromatic shells can be transformed into a delicious infusion — giving another part of the cacao fruit a meaningful purpose.

It is a simple expression of something we deeply value at Alche-me: honouring the whole cacao and making thoughtful use of what nature provides.

HOW TO ENJOY

Add 1–2 teaspoons of cacao husks per cup and pour over freshly boiled water.

Steep for 5–7 minutes, strain and enjoy.

Drink it pure to experience its delicate cacao flavour, or add your favourite milk and a touch of sweetness for a softer, more comforting cup.
