Dairy free: chocolate "milk"/chocolate popsicles/hot chocolate

I don't drink milk. My stolen philosophy is "milk is good for baby cows," and I'm sticking to it. When they
start serving up human milk...well, that'll never happen, but it is a niche people!!! I try to think up an invention or a recipe every day...
So I was feeling kind of bad that my son probably won't be drinking chocolate milk...until he's big enough to buy his own...but his tastebuds are unadulterated at this point and that works in favor for a parent trying their hardest to form healthy eating habits for their child. I want him to get nutrition out of everything he eats!
 This recipe is kind of cool...I'll put a picture on later...
I put 2 banana's,
a cup of water, or homemade almond milk if you have it,
a heaping tablespoon of raw honey,
a splash of vanilla extract,
 a dash of salt,
 and enough raw cacao powder to make it a deep chocolate color (about 2 tablespoons, then I blended well
 and then added about 10 ice cubes...blended until smooth and then adjusted the sweetness and chocolate to taste....delicious!
 I poured the extra in our homemade popsicle maker for chocolate popsicles. I promise to post pictures...this is soo good and dairy free! You could serve it hot too, haven't tried it yet, just an idea.
