Sometimes you just need a sweet treat and our cookie butter beauty latte is the perfect thing to satisfy that craving. It is incredibly easy to put together and still incredibly creamy and yummy.
All it takes is a shot of espresso, almond milk, cookie butter flavored almond milk creamer, and our Vegan Vanilla Collagen Support creamer. We like to top it with some coconut whipped cream to make it even more special, but most of its special features are present in our Vegan Collagen Support Creamer.
Our collagen support creamers come in two flavors, original and vanilla, but for this recipe we prefer to use our vanilla for a little extra sweetness. We love it as a vegan coffee creamer and as a beauty boost in just about anything. Our blends help your body naturally produce more collagen and promote healthier hair, skin, and nails using the power of plant botanicals.* Some of these powerful plant botanicals include tremella mushroom, amla berry, and bamboo leaf extract.
Tremella Mushroom
If you want a supple, glowing complexion, maintaining your skin hydration (from the inside-out!) is key – and tremella can help!* One of the most notable tremella mushroom benefits for the skin is its ability to hold nearly 500 times its weight in water. In fact, tremella fuciformis is often compared to hyaluronic acid, an ingredient often found in skin care products and supplements (as well as our Plant-Based Collagen Suppor Blends!).
Amla Berry
As for its benefits on hair health, amla is rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A and antioxidants. These properties help to promote circulation to the blood vessels in the scalp. When there is active circulation in these vessels, it helps to enhance hair regrowth and scalp health. Because of its anti-inflammatory properties, it helps to reduce scalp inflammation and the production of excess oil production. A 2017 study mentions that the oil from amla berries has been used as a hair tonic to enrich hair growth and improve pigmentation.
Bamboo Leaf Extract
Bamboo leaf extract contains tons of minerals and antioxidants that have been shown to help boost our hair, skin, and nail health as well as promote joint health and increased collagen levels.* Silica is produced naturally by our bodies but just as with collagen, our bodies lose the ability to produce it as we age.* Bamboo leaf extract can be a powerful supplemental source of silica in our diets.*
As you can see, the ingredients that go into our collagen support blend are pretty special. This makes adding them into any latte, cup of coffee, tea, or smoothie that much more beneficial for you and your natural collagen production.*
