Instructions:
Add the water, nut or seed butter, maple syrup, and sea salt to the blender. This will depend on your taste. Try 1 tbsp. first and see how you like it. Add more nut or seed butter for thickness and a more pronounced flavor.
Blend on low for 30-seconds and then on high for 30-seconds. Use in your smoothie or a latte.
Store in the fridge 1-2 days. Shake before using.
Chef Carla Notes:
- I love this in my tea lattes.
This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
