This 5-Minute Detox Latte is a warm, nourishing, caffeine-free drink that you can enjoy any time of day for multiple benefits.
While most of us know it as an annoying weed, milk thistle has strong antioxidant effects and may help promote liver cell regeneration, reduce inflammation, and benefit those with liver disease. It contains flavonoids that can repair damaged liver cells and protect healthy ones from toxins.
Almond butter and olive oil make this latte a bit richer, and they both offer vitamin E, another important nutrient for optimal liver function. Olive oil also increases HDL cholesterol and reduces triglycerides, providing protection against fatty liver disease (which has been on the rise from the Standard American Diet).

- 6 fresh mint leaves
- 1 ½ cups filtered boiling water
- 1 tablespoons raw almond butter
- ¼ teaspoon honey
