This fizzy, chocolatey drink hits that sweet spot between a fancy café beverage and something you can throw together in minutes at home. The combination of unsweetened cocoa, cool peppermint extract, and a splash of sparkling water creates a refreshing, lightly sweet spritz that feels indulgent without being heavy. Maple syrup brings just the right amount of natural sweetness, and a tiny pinch of salt makes the chocolate flavor pop in the best way. Every ingredient here is straightforward and grain-free by nature, so there's no need to scrutinize labels for hidden grain-based additives or malt-derived ingredients that can sneak into flavored drink mixes. The blender does all the heavy lifting — just blend, pour slowly to keep that gorgeous fizz alive, and you're done. A few fresh mint leaves and a dusting of cocoa on top make it look like something you'd pay too much for at a coffee shop. It's the kind of drink that works equally well as an afternoon pick-me-up or a festive mocktail for a crowd.

Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, peppermint extract, cold water, ice cubes, and salt to a blender. Blend on high for 20–30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and uniformly combined with no visible cocoa streaks.
Divide the blended mixture evenly between two tall glasses. Pour 1/2 cup of chilled sparkling water into each glass, pouring slowly down the side of the glass to preserve the fizz.
