How to make the perfect hormone balancing tea latte

Making a hormone balancing tea latte is pretty easy. In fact we can simplify the whole process by saying just make a ‘regular’ tea with milk and add protein and fat to it.

The addition of these two macronutrients is what makes the latte balancing.

Let’s explore some of your options for making a hormone balancing tea latte.

But first … What is a Tea Latte

A tea latte is a beverage made from strongly brewed tea and frothy milk. It’s kinda like a milk tea that’s frothy or like a regular latte but made with tea not coffee.

Hormone Balancing Latte Method

1) In a mug – Brew your tea

Tips for making a delicious brew: 

Follow the recommended steeping time and temperature for your selected tea, this is usually indicated on the package.

Never squeeze out the teabag into your cup as that only expels the bitter tasting tannins 🙂

2) In a small pot on the stovetop add

• milk
• brewed tea if it has cooled down
• fat if it’s in solid form, if it’s liquid add it directly to the blender

Heat over medium heat until hot

3) In a blender add

• protein
• fat if liquid
• adaptogens
• optional flavour enhancers

4) When milk mixture is warm add it to the blender along with brewed tea

5) Blend until smooth

6) Pour into mug
