Brazil Nut Free Peppermint Cocoa Spritz

This fizzy, chocolatey drink is the kind of thing that feels indulgent but comes together in minutes with nothing more than a blender and a handful of pantry staples. The combination of unsweetened cocoa, cool peppermint extract, and a touch of maple syrup creates a rich, minty base that gets lifted by a pour of chilled sparkling water for a satisfying effervescence in every sip. It's the sort of refreshing treat that works just as well on a warm afternoon as it does after dinner when you're craving something sweet without committing to a full dessert. Because the ingredient list is short and straightforward — no chocolate bars, no nut-based milks, no mystery blends — you have complete control over what goes into your glass, which is a genuine relief when you're navigating tree nut concerns at the store. The blending step is key: it fully emulsifies the cocoa so you get a smooth, streak-free mixture rather than a gritty, separated drink. A few fresh mint leaves and a dusting of cocoa powder on top make it look almost too pretty to drink — almost.
