No, You’re Not Dreaming: Caffeinated Bone Broth Hot Cocoa Now Exists

One company has dared ask “What if your morning coffee tasted like hot chocolate and packed 25g of protein?” I was hoping and praying that they meant a new mocha canned drink that was filled with protein somehow. A mocha is my espresso drink of choice, so it would be quite the fortunate event. What we were instead given was something far, far more sinister. Meet Ballerina Farm’s new caffeinated bone broth hot cocoa.

I’ll Let You Sit With That One For A Second

That’s a lot to take in. It’s like someone did a Mad Lib of all the buzzwords at the current moment in time. Unfortunately, that is not the case here. I guess I can see the appeal here. Somehow, the brand already has a cult favorite product that’s pretty similar―their bone broth hot cocoa. Beloved for its rich flavor in a protein-packed scoop, you might as well make bone broth a little more fun while you’re at it.

This new version uses the same clean formula (grass-fed beef bone broth, grass-fed collagen, cocoa, organic coconut sugar, monk fruit, and a pinch of French grey sea salt) with 80mg of caffeine from guarana (aka a common caffeinator in energy drinks) added in.

Guarana For A Boost

Ballerina Farms used the seeds of this Amazonian plant to support focus and stamina. Its caffeine is paired with naturally occurring compounds like theobromine and theophylline, which many people find delivers a steadier, more even energy than a standard cup of coffee, without the jittery spike.

Whether it’s replacing your morning latte or getting you through the 3PM slump, it’s an easy way to fuel up, with protein and amino acids that support gut health, joints, skin, hair, and nails. You know, just in a bit of a more unique setup than your typical mocha. I won’t personally be swapping things out but I welcome you all to make the switch.

All The Details

20-serving bags are now available for $46 on ballerinafarm.com and at select retailers. Each serving dishes up 25g of protein from a combination of bone broth and collagen and provides 80mg of caffeine.

I just have one question left. Which one of you sick and twisted fools asked for this? Show yourselves! We have to draw the line somewhere and this might be it for me. I’ll just be over here trying to tweak my weekly mocha to have a bit more protein in it so I can skip the caffeinated bone broth hot cocoa.
