- 1 tablespoon sugar-free sweetener of choice (e.g., stevia or monk fruit)
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract

Add the sugar-free sweetener to the chocolate paste and mix well. Adjust the sweetness to your taste preference by adding more sweetener if needed.
In a large glass, combine the chocolate paste with the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
Slowly pour in the almond milk while stirring to blend the chocolate mixture and milk uniformly.
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
Optionally, drizzle sugar-free chocolate syrup around the inner sides of another glass for a decorative effect before pouring the chocolate drink over the ice.
Stir the drink well before serving, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed.
