Toasted Coconut Spirulina Latte

This beautifully colored superfood latte gets its green color from spirulina, a blue-green algae that's very high in chlorophyll, a potent liver detoxifier. By weight, it's 60% protein and is one of the few plants sources of vitamin B12. It contains more beta-carotene by weight than carrots, and also has iron, B-complex vitamins, vitamin K, and the fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid (GLA).
