why you’ll love it

  • Banana bread flavor, zero fuss – warm banana, vanilla, and matcha in one cup.

  • Collagen you’ll actually drink – hydrolyzed peptides for easy mixing and daily consistency.

  • Beauty benefits – a daily 5 g dose supports skin hydration and elasticity, plus hair, nails, and joints.

  • Dairy-free friendly – use almond, oat, soy, or coconut milk.

make it yours

  • Pumpkin-spice season: add ¼ tsp pumpkin pie spice.

  • Protein boost: blend in 2–3 tbsp Greek yogurt or a splash of espresso for extra kick.

  • Naturally sweet: blend the concentrate with one pitted date.

pro tips for the perfect latte

  • Always whisk powders with a tablespoon or two of hot water first to eliminate clumps.

  • For extra foam, use a handheld frother for 10–15 seconds.

  • Iced version: chill your milk first so the ice doesn’t dilute flavor.

faq

Does heating destroy collagen?
No—normal latte temperatures are fine. Collagen is heat stable for typical home prep.

Can I drink this daily?
Yes. Consistency matters for visible results; most people aim for ~5 g collagen per day.

Is it sweet?
Yes. Sweeten extra to taste with maple, honey, or a date.

Can I make it vegan?
Collagen isn’t vegan. For a similar flavor, make the recipe with plant milk and skip collagen, or use our dairy-free milk options and add Pure Marine/Pure Bovine if you include collagen.
