Want to make hot chocolate from a plant growing in your back yard? Visit http://www.rewildu.com/survival-chocolate-with-white-avens/ for more details. This is an experiment in making a hot "chocolate" with the root of White Avens (Geum canadense), a plant native to Wisconsin and southern Canada/northern U.S. I'm not sure of its southern range. I heard a rumor that a tea of the root tastes like chocolate, so I gave it a try. I can't vouch for the edibility or tendency for allergic reaction of this plant, so do your own research and test a small bit before you consume. In short, I was pleasantly surprised! This video shows you how I did it. You can learn this and many other skills during your own rewilding journey at ReWild University (http://www.rewildu.com/metamorphosis-2). Our customized mentor-based programs will be full of adventure as you learn primal fitness, ancestral skills, wilderness survival, how to reclaim your "wild mind", homesteading skills, how to switch to a primal diet, and go on wilderness adventures! Get in touch with us and let the adventures begin!
