The Pink Latte: Beetroot Powder Recipes Worth Waking Up For
Share
The pink latte is the prettiest drink on the menu, and you can make a better one at home for a fraction of the price. The secret ingredient: beetroot powder. Three recipes below.
1. The classic hot pink latte
Whisk 1 teaspoon beetroot powder into a splash of hot water, froth in a cup of warmed milk (dairy or plant), and sweeten with a little honey or maple. A pinch of vanilla makes it.
2. Iced pink latte
Stir beetroot powder into a little warm water to dissolve, top with cold milk over ice, and sweeten to taste. Pretty, refreshing and caffeine-free.
3. Beetroot hot chocolate
Add a teaspoon of beetroot powder to your usual cocoa for an earthy depth, a rosy hue and an antioxidant boost. Surprisingly delicious.
Why it's more than pretty
Beetroot brings natural dietary nitrates and antioxidants along with that colour — a small upgrade to a comforting routine. (For the pre-workout angle, see our beetroot guides.)
