Hot Pink Protein Latte

Trade your second coffee for this vibrant beetroot latte―frothy, vanilla-kissed, and spiced with cinnamon. Beets naturally increase nitric oxide, which helps blood vessels relax and improve circulation. Blend them with protein powder, and you’ve got a cozy drink that doubles as muscle fuel.
