Activated Charcoal Goth Latte

Goth latte recipe & content provided by Ryan Carter

Goth lattes are here to stay — and not just because they look amazing on your Instagram feed. Activated charcoal lattes make the perfect choice when you need a quick detox. Unlike other supplements you take to absorb their nutrients, activated charcoal helps bind and flush out unwanted toxins. Plus, it can give your digestive system a break from bloating, gas, pollution, heavy metals, and alcohol.

When I prepare my goth latte, I prefer to enjoy it in the evening to wind down before bed. This approach allows the activated charcoal to do its magic while I rest and recharge for the day ahead. If you try this activated charcoal latte, avoid taking medications or supplements at least one hour (or preferably longer) before you enjoy it. Since activated charcoal is so potent, it may negate the benefits you would get from supplements.

My goth latte contains 4 ingredients and takes 5 minutes to prepare. I use full-fat coconut milk for a richer taste with no added water or sugar that you’ll find in lighter-fat options. Plus, this activated charcoal latte gets a touch of flavor from powdered vanilla bean and raw honey (though you can also use other keto-friendly sweeteners like stevia).

Enjoy this goth latte with keto chocolate muffins or keto chocolate cake for an afternoon snack as dark as your soul. 😉
