#betterthan Eggnog Lattes

eggnoglattes

Eggnog latte anyone?

I mean seriously. They are so yummy.

It’s comfort food for me. The vanilla, the nutmeg, the creaminess. #drool

But here’s the thing…

…even when it’s quality espresso,

…made with a non dairy nut milk of your choice,

…and half the amount of flavor pumps,

There are still tons of not so figure flattering calories,

…inflammation causing processed sugars and often high fructose corn syrup,

…and caffeine that wreaks with your adrenal glands and blood sugars.

Meet my #betterthan eggnog late.

Every bit of the sweet, frothy goodness, but none of the other stuff that leaves you reaching for more sugar and caffeine once the ride is over.

This is about creating a long term relationship with sustainable energy and joy; not a quick fix and then dump you off after an hour feeling tired and ready for a nap.

This is about enjoying and nourishing with comfort food that fills you up and keeps you going.
