Raw Matcha Latte

One of my favorite after dinner treats used to be the matcha latte I would get from a favorite sushi restaurant of mine in NYC.  The creamy mellow sweetness had me hooked everytime …Of course it was made with thick frothy milk and sweetened with sugar.  So excited to have come up with this thick frothy treat to satisfy my matcha latte craving without the milk or the sugar! You can even add some raw protein powder for the perfect post workout treat.

1 c green hemp milk*

1 T lucuma powder

1 tsp matcha powder

1/4 tsp vanilla powder

raw honey or sweetener of choice to taste

Blend all ingredients except matcha powder well in high speed blender until smooth.  Add matcha powder and blend again.  Yum!
*To make green hemp milk, blend 1/4-1/3 c green hemp seed meal (depending on desired thickness) with 1 c water and strain through a nut mylk bag.

Vanilla Goji Lemonade

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! This is an awesome drink to keep you hydrated throughout the day (and perfect for those who need a little extra flavor in their water to make it palatable)!

Vanilla Goji Lemonade pre-soaking

24 oz purified water

1/2 lemon

1/2 lime

3 handfuls goji berries (approximately 3/4c)

1/2 tsp vanilla powder

optional: 2 T chia seeds

optional: vanilla stevia

Put 3 handfuls of goji berries in a 32 oz jar and add lemon, vanilla, chia if desired, and a few drops of vanilla stevia if you desire a sweeter drink.  Fill jar with water, place lid on the jar and shake, making sure that all gojis are covered with water.  Let jar sit in the fridge for 3 hours or longer so gojis get fully rehydrated and plump.  Drink as is allowing for a delightful little goji surprise with each sip or drink the water first and use a spoon to finish the gojis at the end.  Adding chia will simply give your lemonade an additional boost of hydration and fiber.  No need to worry about the chia changing the lovely sweet lemon taste as chia is flavorless
