Velvet Latte 100g

Ayurveda is an ancient Indian practice used for thousands of years based on the belief that wellness depends on a delicate balance of mind, body, and spirit. It is one of the oldest holistic systems that promotes the use of chai spices. These spices are traditionally used to inspire a perception of wellness & tranquility through their aromatic scent.

Beetroot has been used historically for an array of natural alternatives from sweetening foods, due to the intense sweetness of the juice, through to dying fabrics with its vibrant red colour that comes from a group of naturally occurring pigment compounds called betacyanins.

Turmeric has over the past 4000 years of Ayurveda been traditionally consumed in warm Turmeric based beverages. These drinks are always prepared with black pepper which is said to be imperative to bringing the goodness out of the Turmeric. We’ve made sure that our Turmeric is not only the highest quality available, but has also been carefully combined with black pepper in our Velvet Latte to deliver the wealth of Turmeric’s traditional benefits.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding safe?

All of our superfood latte’s are completely safe for consumption during pregnancy and lactation and for persons under the age of 15. This is due to our latte’s being made up solely of organic whole food ingredients.

Are they vegan?

Here at Nutra Organics we decide not to call ALL of our super latte’s vegan due to the fact that the Mermaid Latte (blue one) and the Golden Latte (yellow one) contain Manuka Honey. Some vegans decide to eat honey but for the sake of keeping it above board for those who don’t we we feel it’s better to play it safe. BUT luckily our Velvet latte (pink one) is completely vegan with not an animal sourced ingredient insight so there is something for everyone.

Is Manuka Honey ethical?

Supporting other local and ethical businesses that support us is deeply ingrained in the Nutra Organics ethos. That said we have especially sourced our Manuka Honey from a supplier that gathers it from many different busy bee hives up and down the Australian eastern seaboard. This makes sure that our bee’s are never overworked and are free to roam wherever they shall please. This keeps them very happy and also means that they are able to keep producing amazing manuka honey that makes all of us very happy too.

What do our Superfood Latte’s taste like?

All of our Superfood Latte’s are traditional Ayurvedic chai based and will have hints of cinnamon, cardamom and ginger. Our velvet latte has a natural sweetness that comes from the beetroot whilst the mermaid is a full-bodied chai with clove and star anise added to enhance the spice profile. The golden latte definitely has a warm earthy flavour profile with turmeric being what brings in the sunshine.

Why do the spices in my Superfood Latte float?

All of the ingredients included in the formulation of our Mermaid Latte (as with all of our products) come from wholefoods that are simply dried and ground. This means that no instantisers, thickeners or extra sugars are added to enhance the solubility of the spices. As such our spices may float to the top of your latte but you can rest assured it’s because they are the real deal. If you really would like to stop this from happening we suggest frothing the milk as this tends to keep them held in suspension a bit longer.

What are adaptogenic herbs/what are they good for?

What’s all the fuss about Turmeric Latte’s?

Turmeric latte’s are absolutely everywhere from your local cafe to supermarket shelves, you are sure to come across one in your travels. But what separates our’s from the rest? Well our turmeric has been standardised to contain 5% curcumin. Curcumin is what gives turmeric its bright orange colour and is what all health experts are going crazy for.
