Instructions:
In a medium saucepan, bring filtered water to a boil. Turn off heat and add Maple or Yacon Syrup and chocolate.

Add Peppermint Vitality Essential Oil and whisk again. Peppermint Vitality Oil is strong. Start with 1-2 drops, taste then add another 1-2 drops.
Pour melted chocolate into the mixing bowl in the ice bath and whisk vigorously until mixture becomes thick and ribbon-like.
Spoon mousse into petite serving cups or ramekins and refrigerate 1 hour.
