Reishi Latte by @thefrenchcoconut
To help your body (and your mind) cope with containment, we asked our beloved adaptogens expert, Eva, to share with us her favorite recipe.
What are adaptogens?
They are non-toxic plants, herbs and fungi that help the body fight against stressors, whichever their source.
In this latte you will find 3 of them:
– Reishi, a fungus known for its abilities to strengthen the immune system, reduce stress and fatigue, and promote a better sleep;
– Maca, which boosts energy and promotes a balanced hormonal system;
– Ashwagandha, natural energy booster that helps fighting fatigue and promotes a better memory.
Ginger and cinnamon have also be included for their antiseptic, energizing and anti-inflammatory properties.
You’ll find the ingredients in organic food shops:
-3/4 cup hot water
-1/3 cup plant based milk (oat, rice or almond for example)
-1 tbsp raw cocoa powder
-1 tsp reishi
-1 tsp maca powder
-1/2 tsp ashwagandha powder
-1 tsp mapple syrup or 1 date
-1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
-2 slices or fresh ginger
Mix all the ingredient in a blender, filter any fiber residue if necessary, and indulge into a short meditative break to enjoy all the benefits of your latte.
