It only takes three ingredients: cashews, dates, and collagen powder. By blending up those soaked cashews, you’re essentially creating plant-based milk—and instead of pouring it over your beverage, you’re combining it with your coffee in one simple step. The dates also add a touch of sweetness to the drink without overpowering it completely, so the coffee flavor still shines through.
But I’d argue the real kicker here is the collagen peptides. There’s something about blending up a high-quality powder that makes the drink oh-so-creamy, and it ties the whole recipe together.
Experiential benefits aside, collagen is also associated with plenty of beauty perks, like skin elasticity and hydration1 and strong hair and nails.* mindbodygreen’s beauty & gut collagen+ also features beauty-enhancing extras, like hyaluronic acid, turmeric, and vitamins C and E to aid collagen synthesis and help protect cells from oxidative stress.*
