BLACK LATTE
DETOX / PURIFICATION / FLAT STOMACH
A detox latte to purify the body and achieve a flatter stomach. This is the latte that changes the lives of people suffering from bloating thanks to the absorbent properties of charcoal. It absorbs gas, but also pesticides, heavy metals, toxins, and more.

FAQ - YOUR QUESTIONS ABOUT SUPERFOOD LATTES
Can you drink these lattes every day?
Yes for most of them, with a few nuances:
Daily without any problem:
- Pink Latte: Yes, every day if you like
- Green Latte: Yes, perfect as a replacement for your morning coffee
- Golden Latte: Yes, excellent as a daily 4-8 week course
In moderation:
Black Latte: 2-3 times a week maximum
Why limit the Black Latte? Zeolite is a powerful detoxifier that can absorb not only toxins, but also certain nutrients and medications. Excessive consumption could reduce the absorption of your essential vitamins and minerals.
Tip: Alternate the lattes according to your current needs rather than drinking the same one every day. Your body will appreciate the diversity of nutrients.
What time of day should I drink my latte?
The optimal timing for each latte:
Pink Latte (Glow / Anti-aging):
Best time: Morning or mid-morning
Why? The antioxidants protect your skin throughout the day
Alternative: 4 p.m. snack for a glow boost before the evening
Black Latte (Detox):
Best time: In the morning on an empty stomach, 30 minutes before breakfast
Why? Zeolite works best on an empty stomach to capture toxins
Important: Wait 2-3 hours before or after taking medications or supplements
Green Latte (Energy):
Best time: Morning (replaces coffee) or early afternoon (around 2-3 p.m.)
Why? The caffeine from matcha and the adaptogens provide a lasting energy boost
To avoid: After 4 p.m. if you are sensitive to caffeine
Golden Latte (Immunity / Relaxation):
Best time: In the evening, 1-2 hours before bedtime
Why? Turmeric and ashwagandha soothe and prepare you for sleep. No caffeine.
Alternative: Afternoon if you are looking for the anti-inflammatory effect rather than the relaxing one
Can I use cow’s milk instead of plant milk?
Yes, but it is less optimal. Here is why plant milks are recommended:
Benefits of plant milks:
Easier digestion: No lactose, which can cause inflammation and bloating
Creamier texture: Especially with oat, almond, and cashew milk
Nutritional synergy: Plant milks do not interfere with superfood absorption
Anti-inflammatory: Cow’s milk can be pro-inflammatory for some skin types
Our favorite plant milks for each latte:
Pink: Oat milk (creamy and slightly sweet)
Black: Cashew milk (very creamy, masks the taste of charcoal)
Green: Rice/coconut milk (light, does not overpower the taste of matcha)
Golden: Almond milk (pairs perfectly with the spices)
Can these lattes replace a meal?
No, they are not meal replacements, but rather nourishing complementary drinks.
What they provide:
Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants
Some protein (depending on the recipe)
Energy and nutrients
How to include them in your meals:
As a breakfast addition: with eggs, wholegrain bread, fruit
As a substantial snack: add a banana, a handful of nuts, avocado toast
Enriched version: add 1 serving of plant protein, 1 tbsp almond butter, chia seeds, etc.
The exception: The Green Latte (with maca and cordyceps) can serve as a light breakfast if you practice intermittent fasting, because it provides energy without fully breaking the fast.
Can I drink a latte in the evening before going to sleep?
It depends on the latte.
Perfect in the evening:
Golden Latte: IDEAL before bed (caffeine-free, relaxing)
Pink Latte: OK in the evening (no caffeine, gentle and comforting)
To avoid in the evening:
Green Latte: Contains caffeine (matcha) → keep it for morning/afternoon
Black Latte: Too detoxifying, may disrupt sleep
The best evening ritual: Golden Latte
Why it is perfect before bed:
Turmeric: Anti-inflammatory, supports overnight recovery
Ashwagandha: Relaxing adaptogen that reduces cortisol
Cinnamon + ginger: Help regulate nighttime blood sugar
Warm plant milk: Comforting and promotes relaxation
