Anti-inflammatory Pumpkin Spice Latte

Low-sugar, dairy-free, and full of REAL spices, you won’t find this on Starbucks’ menu.

Ingredients:

  • 8-16oz of your favorite organic coffee (see notes below)
  • 1/4 to 1 scoop of Bone Broth IQ (amount depends on how sweet you like your coffee)
  • 2-4 Tbsp of Silk coconut + oat milk half-and-half or NutPods original almond + coconut creamer (see notes).

Directions:

  1. Brew your coffee with your preferred method (I love freshly ground beans, French pressed at 195 degrees for a perfectly smooth and balanced flavor). Add to a mug.
  2. Add Bone Broth IQ – start with a smaller amount and taste as you go. If you don’t like very sweet coffee, you might only need a small amount. If you like sweet coffee, you’ll probably want a full scoop.
  3. Add dairy-free creamer to your desired creaminess. Enjoy!

Notes:

On the Coffee:

  • From a functional medicine standpoint, organic coffee is the way to go! Regular coffee is sprayed with pesticides which end up in your morning cup.
  • If possible, it’s also a great practice to grind your own coffee. Pre-ground coffee can often have invisible mold – the opposite of anti-inflammatory.
  • And lastly, skip the flavored coffees if you’re goal is to best support health. These are soaked in chemicals that evoke the scenes to perceive certain flavors, they don’t actually contain real vanilla, hazelnut, or caramel, etc. My favorite is the Organic Sumatran blend from Sprouts.

On the Creamer:

  • You can use any non-dairy creamer for this, but the biggest thing to look out for with creamers is the added sugars! It’s next to impossible to find even dairy-free creamers that do not have a ton of added sugar – and with the bone broth, you really don’t need it. Both of these options do not have added sugars.
  • NutPods has many no-sugar-added flavored creamers which taste great, but I recommend not having these daily as they are also flavored with artificial flavors just like flavored coffees.

On the Bone Broth IQ

  • This is also excellent in a chia tea latte!
