Healthy, Yummy, Warm, Vegan Drinks!

On cold, snowy winter days, I love to curl up on the couch with a hot drink. Instead of drinking a 1200 calorie latte, I've come up with a few healthier alternatives.


Almond Milk Hot Chocolate


My favorite way to make vegan hot chocolate is to warm up a mug of this on the stove or in the microwave with a sprinkle or two of cinnamon. 


You can also add a little homemade chocolate syrup to unsweetened or vanilla flavored almond or coconut milk. 

For a bittersweet version, add cocoa powder instead of the syrup!


Tea with Coconut French Vanilla Creamer

In the mood for a pumpkin spice latte? Instead, try an herbal tea with a little SO Delicious French Vanilla creamer. It's delicious! Try adding a shot of coffee to really get the job done! :)



Harney Teas

Or try a cinnamon, chocolate, or vanilla tea! I am super interested in this chocolate mint one from Harney & Sons! (How CUTE are these tins!?)


Chocolate Mint



Hot Lemon Water

You can never go wrong with a hot mug of water with a couple lemon slices! The lemon is a great source of vitamin C and helps support your liver clean out those toxins!














Non-Dairy Lattes & Cappuccinos

If you own your own espresso or cappuccino machine, start getting creative!! Use a variety of non-dairy milks to see which you like best. I've been experimenting with almond and coconut milk. Both are delicious and coconut milk gets frothy really quickly for a very creamy cappuccino! Add yummy spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, or use vanilla or chocolate flavored milk to kick it up a notch!






















I also grind my own coffee beans so it's extra fresh, just like Caribou :)
