I had many requests to share the recipe for my daily favourite coffee elixir after sharing how I make it on my Instagram. Because of the requests, here you are!
As always, thank you all so much for requesting recipes. Thank you for actually caring about the recipes I create, and content I publish, on both my Instagram and my growing little recipe blog. Big big love to you all. Thank you for being apart of this growth.
Be mindful that this recipe is more of a guideline. Feel free to use a little more of this or that to suit your taste preference, get creative by adding different herbs, and really try to notice how this coffee makes you feel after. I always add adaptogens such as mushrooms, ashwaganda, maca root, etc in my coffee because I love how it positively affects my mood and boosts cognitive function. I like adding fats because it makes the coffee a little less harsh on my stomach and bowles. It’s also super satiating as it fuels my body with healthy fat sources. The collagen adds a bit of protein (9g/tbsp) along with gut healing amino acids and also helps to keep you fuller for longer.
