Superfood elixirs have become increasingly popular as people look for ways to boost their health and vitality. These liquid concentrates are made from natural ingredients and are rich in antioxidants and nutrients that can help promote health.
What are superfoods?
Superfoods are foods that have many beneficial properties for your health. These foods include fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, beans and legumes, and whole grains. They are high in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients that can promote good health. Some of superfoods' most cited benefits include reducing inflammation, improving cognitive function, and preventing diseases like cancer.
What are elixirs?
Elixirs, also known as liquid flavour concentrates, are a liquid essence produced by filtering the water out of the fruit or vegetable pulp. You can use elixirs as a flavouring agent in drinks, desserts, and baked goods.
As the name suggests, superfood elixirs are made from superfoods. They contain natural ingredients, such as turmeric, beetroot, and matcha, known for their antioxidant and health-boosting properties.
You can enjoy Superfood elixirs in cold drinks, such as superfood shakes and smoothies; however, they are most commonly on the menus of cafes, restaurants, and delicatessens as superfood lattes.
What are superfood lattes, and how are they made?
A superfood latte is an alternative to tea or coffee. It tastes different from a traditional latte as it takes on the flavour of the ingredients. In the case of turmeric and beetroot, the flavours are deliciously earthy.
Here are the three lattes you can make with Alchemy Superfood Elixirs. To make these lattes, put 50ml of Alchemy Superfood Elixir into a cup and add frothed hot milk or a milk alternative.
Turmeric Latte
Turmeric lattes are becoming increasingly popular as people become more aware of the benefits of turmeric. Turmeric is a spice used in Indian cooking for centuries and has many health benefits. It is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and can help to boost cognitive function and improve digestion. Turmeric latte has a lovely golden colour and a subtle spiced flavour.
Beetroot Latte
Beetroot latte is a creamy drink made with Beetroot Superfood elixir and milk or a milk alternative. It has a deep red colour and earthy flavour and is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Matcha Latte
Matcha is a special kind of green tea that is made from the young leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. The leaves are shade-grown for three to four weeks before harvest, increasing the chlorophyll content and making them more vibrant colour. After harvest, the leaves are stone-ground into a fine powder. As a result, Matcha has an earthy and grassy flavour with hints of sweetness. Matcha Latte is a delicious creamy drink made with Matcha, hot milk, or a milk alternative.
