From artisanal cashew cheese and cauliflower puffs, to electrolyte-filled coconut water and dairy-free yogurt, last week’s Well & Tasty: A Total Foodie Fair was the grand finale of our Plants + People celebrations. In honor of the recent launch of our print magazine–a special issue dedicated to all things plants–Total Wellness collaborated with Veg Bruins to host UCLA’s first ever vegan food market.
Whether you are feeling nostalgic about your childhood, or just really love chocolate, these drink recipes are perfect for you. These recipes are a healthier alternative to traditional hot chocolate, using cocoa powder instead of sugar-loaded chocolate syrups and artificial flavors that are typically found in mainstream coffee stores.
Welcome to the second part of our healthified holiday beverages! If you are a tea lover, this category of holiday beverages is for you. Whether you prefer your tea plain or in a latte form, the following set of recipes consist of some traditional as well as some modern takes on holiday flavors.
There's no escaping the holiday spirit. Grocery stores are stocked with holiday-inspired items, while homes and public spaces are adorned with garlands, wreaths, and Christmas trees. Of course, we cannot forget about the abundance of delicious holiday beverages that coffee shops offer during this time of the year.
