Carrot Cake Latte

The sweet earthy carrots, creamy coconut milk, and warming spices in this delicious drink support  your immune system while boosting energy and promoting a beautiful, radiant glow. I love to drink this in the morning to start my day off with a sure hit of vitamin C for added immunity and skin-plumping beta-carotene.
