Spirulina Latte

Half the fun of eating spirulina is its color, the other half is knowing its many incredible health benefits. However, the taste can be a little off putting on its own. This spirulina latte is fun to make, and it’s warm, cozy, slightly sweet, and not at all swampy in taste. Drinking a beverage of this color will definitely make you appreciate spirulina in all its glory and provide you with a bright start to your morning or a smile during your afternoon break.

Ingredients

• 2 cups almond milk or other plant milk of choice (I used homemade hazelnut)
• 1-2 teaspoons organic spirulina powder
• 1 teaspoon raw maca powder (optional)
• ¼ — ½ teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon honey or more to taste
• 1 teaspoon coconut butter (optional)
• 1 teaspoon sunflower lecithin (optional)
• beet powder mixed with coconut sugar — for garnish (totally optional)

Instructions

1. Pour the milk into a medium saucepan and warm over medium high heat until pleasantly warm but not boiling.
2. Put the warmed milk into the blender together with the rest of the ingredients, except the beet powder garnish. Blend until smooth and frothy.
3. Distribute between cups, garnish with the beet powder and enjoy warm. Store the leftovers refrigerated in an airtight container. This latte can also be enjoyed chilled or iced.
