Keto Matcha Latte

INGREDIENTS: 
​2 cups hot water 
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond or coconut milk
1+ scoop organic matcha powder
1-2 Tablespoons raw coconut oil or MCT oil
1-2 Tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee
​1 scoop Nature's Sunshine Collagen Powder
Use liquid vanilla stevia, Bocha Sweet or monkfruit, to taste
 

Optional: 1 tsp Liquid Chlorophyll ES (has a mild sweet mint flavor unlike other grassy-tasting chlorophyll)

*highlighted products are available through my online Nature's Sunshine store.

Add all ingredients to a high-power blender, on high, until frothy.

​*Continue blending 1-3 minutes to make your drink hotter IF you didn't start with HOT water. (only a high-power blender like a Vitamix or BlendTec will have enough power to heat up your mixture).

NUTRITION TIPS: 
Coffee is very acidic and over-stimulates many people's adrenal glands and sympathetic nervous system (this is YOU if you feel anxious, sweaty or get insomnia when you drink coffee). It’s contributing to your FATIGUE, is loaded with chemicals and pesticides if it's not organic, and is a high mold carrier (no bueno for Candida Detox).

Replacing acidic coffee with highly alkaline and nutritious green matcha powder promotes healing and oxygenation in the body. Matcha powder is LOADED with antioxidants and blows traditional green tea out of the water. This is also an excellent way to get an energy boost plus multiple servings of (brain activating & ketosis inducing) good fats in. 

Nature's Sunshine's Liquid Chlorophyll ES: By adding this extra strength chlorophyll to your latte you are significantly increasing its nutritional value! The most critical molecule in the plant world, chlorophyll, is found in all green plants and vegetables. It’s particularly concentrated in spinach. This brand's proprietary complex also includes refreshing spearmint oil, a natural odor fighter. ​This means that this product tastes like mint (other brands will taste like grass....and you WILL NOT love your matcha latte). 

The sodium copper chlorophyll form contained in Nature’s Sunshine Liquid Chlorophyll ES is soluble in water. With the exception of a magnesium atom, chlorophyll’s structure is identical to hemoglobin, the molecule that carries oxygen in the blood. Chlorophyll is known to have the following benefits: 

• Helps promote the natural blood-cleansing functions of the body*
• Promotes circulatory, intestinal, digestive and immune health*
• Protects and strengthens healthy cells*
• Encourages balanced pH levels in the body*
• Deodorizes the body, including the bowel*

Nature's Sunshine Collagen Powder: Adding a scoop of this to any drink, soup, yogurt, etc adds ~15g of protein and packs some serious punch for gut healing, skin health and elasticity, and improving joint pain. My Nature's Sunshine Collagen powder also contains an electrolyte blend which is extremely important for those in ketosis, for anyone who loves to sweat, to help balance hormones and blood pressure, and to assist with overall fatigue.

*f you add collagen powder to anything in a high-powered blender or mixer it will make your drink/recipe "frothy"! It's great for creating healthy lattes, etc. Get creative!
