If you like warm, nutty, creamy, and fall/winter spices, this is for you! You can swap hazelnut extract for almond extract if you prefer and flex any of the spices to your taste. The almond butter makes a creamy almond milk in your blender and is what makes this so rich and dreamy! Mine was the last of my jar but ideally it’s a little drippier. Dairy and refined sugar free. Watch the how-to video here.
You can often find bulk loose-leaf tea in the bulk spices section of a natural foods market or order it online. Watch a quick video here.
I love matcha's smoothness and clean energy (no jitters) and especially look to it when I need deep focus. Green tea is one of my daily rituals that I also recommend to my clients. A matcha latte is a fun and more indulgent way to change it up. This version offers the option to sweeten with dates, maple syrup, or honey and to include add-ins like collagen for additional protein and benefits or coconut oil for satiety, grounding, and it's brain-boosting benefits. Be sure to switch to decaf or mind your caffeine intake if you're sensitive to it. Watch a quick video here.
Bring your lemon water up a notch. Keep these therapeutic ingredients on hand in your kitchen and medicine is always in reach during the colder months. This simple tea is warming, cleansing, nourishes the liver, the skin and can be drank daily or as needed with the onset of acute illness. You can also omit the lemon and enjoy the ginger honey as a tonic to settle an upset stomach or to quell nausea.
Your classic non-dairy, homemade, chai tea latte with an extra punch of turmeric. Or a turmeric latte meets a chai latte. However you see it, let's get some more turmeric in our bodies, shall we? This simple drink is a tasty, warming, therapeutic treat, especially in the winter. It's grounding, nourishing, and has all the spices to help soothe inflammation.
Ridiculously rich in antioxidants, vibrant, tangy, and gingery, this smoothie has all the good stuff. It'll hit the spot just right on a hot, summer mid-morning or afternoon when you want to cool off and stay light. Add a splash more of orange juice or your favorite kombucha to thin it out if it's too thick.
Once you see how incredibly easy it is to make your own homemade nut milk, you may never go back to the store-bought boxed milks again! The pre-packaged milks on the shelves are mostly water and have unnecessary, added ingredients like carrageenan, sugar, natural flavors, and others to make them last longer on the shelf. All you really need is nut butter and water. That's it. The nutrient density is higher and the flavor is richer. So as long as you have almond, cashew, or other nut butters on hand, you always have a simple, homemade nut milk 5 minutes away.
Once you see how incredibly easy it is to make your own homemade coconut milk, you may never go back to the store-bought boxed milks again! The fresh, bright milk that comes out of this is impressive to me every time. The pre-packaged milks on the shelves are mostly water and have unnecessary, added ingredients like carrageenan, sugar, natural flavors, and others to make them last longer on the shelf. All you really need is shredded coconut (usually found in the bulk bin section) and water. That's it. The nutrient density is higher and the flavor is richer. So as long as you keep coconut on hand in your pantry, you always have a simple, homemade coconut milk 5 minutes away.
