Dietitian Notes
Skip the expensive, sugary cafe drinks and opt for this fall sip instead. Plus, when made with our homemade pumpkin spice spread, you get extra points for added fiber, beta carotene, healthy fats, and minerals from whole food ingredients. We love the matcha and Daily Elements combo as a natural source of energy to fight off the afternoon slump without the coffee crash.
Heavy cream gives richness but can be easily swapped for plant-based milk foam (or omitted if watching fat intake). Daily Elements adds antioxidant-rich microgreens, supporting digestive health and immune response. Together, this latte satisfies cravings while helping you keep up your fall wellness habits.
