Pure unsweetened cocoa powder is a highly concentrated source of copper, with approximately 3.8 mg per 100 grams, providing over 400% of the recommended daily intake for adults. However, the actual amount of copper in a prepared cup of hot chocolate is substantially lower, depending on the amount and type of cocoa used, as well as dilution from milk and water.
