This time of year, do you like to treat yourself to those holiday drinks from a coffee shop?
Next time you're about to hit up the drive-thru…Stahhp!!!
And remember this email and what I'm about to tell you.
These drinks are LOADED with one of the worst ingredients you can put in your body…
Did you know that the Starbucks Peppermint Mocha has 54 grams of sugar?
That's like stirring 13 teaspoons of sugar into your coffee…
The same amount of sugar in an entire theater-size box of M&M's.
Or 6 fun-size Snickers.
Or 5 Krispy Kreme Glazed Donuts. Yikes.
Here's how much sugar you'll find in popular holiday coffees:
- Dunkin Donuts Holiday Cookie Latte (Medium) = 11 teaspoons sugar
- McDonald's Dulce de Leche Frappรฉ (Medium) = 24 teaspoons sugar (WHOA!!)
- Starbucks Caramel Brulรฉe Latte (Grande) = 12 teaspoons sugar
- Dutch Bros Candy Cane Mocha (Medium) = 19 teaspoons sugar
Talk about a sugar hangover! You don't need to put all that sugar in your coffee for it to taste good.
Try stirring these in your coffee instead...
- Cinnamon – Adds a hint of sweetness and also provides the immune system with a boost! Just sprinkle a little bit on top, stir it into the grounds before brewing, or stick in a cinnamon stick.
- Nut Milk, Coconut Milk, Coconut Cream or Organic Cream – Adds an instant full-bodied feel to your coffee. Coconut is naturally sweet and will sweeten your coffee without refined sugar. I like to add my homemade coconut milk to a milk frother before adding it to my coffee (and then topping it with cinnamon). The frother really helps to add creaminess – you'll never miss the dairy creamers!
- Unsweetened Cocoa or Cacao Powder – Enhances the subtle notes in the beans and has also been shown to provide important antioxidants which can increase the overall quality of your morning coffee. A small amount can be stirred into the coffee itself or into the grounds before brewing.
- Peppermint Extract, Vanilla Extract, or Almond Extract – Naturally sweet on its own and is an amazing way to wean yourself off of using added sugar or sweeteners. Just stir in a couple drops.
- Grass-fed butter + Coconut oil – Creates a natural creaminess especially when you blend it into your coffee with a hand blender (don't just stir it in). It is known for boosting energy.
- Truvani Collagen – Promotes youthful-looking skin, healthy hair, and stronger nails, and provides support to your body's connective tissues and joints. A frother comes in handy here too!
- Sea Salt – Seems counter intuitive, but as salt reduces bitterness, your coffee will seem sweeter without any sugar. Just be sure to only add a tiny pinch (either to the grounds before brewing or to the entire pot) and don't go overboard or your coffee will taste salty!
I've tried all these - and they WORK! I haven't had to put sugar in my coffee since.
They are not like the hyper-sweetened drinks from coffee shops, but I know from personal experience that when you start implementing these healthier substitutes your body will start to crave them – and the cravings for sugar become less and less.
This is an example of the info you get in my 7-Day Sugar Detox Program.
I created this program because sugar is one of the worst ingredients in our food.
It fuels inflammation, makes you tired and cranky, triggers weight gain, and leads to all sorts of diseases like heart disease, cancer, and type 2 diabetes.
The best thing you can do for yourself is get your sugar consumption under wraps!
