Hot Cocoa Collagen Peptides
Our Hot Cocoa is incredibly delicious when whisked into hot cashew milk, but any other kind of milk or alternative works just fine!
Besides 20 grams of Non-GMO Collagen Peptides per serving, you also get:
- L-Glutamine – for a healthy gut, strong immune system, and support for muscle growth and recovery.
- Organic Non-Alkalized Cocoa – which tastes amazing and retains a higher level of antioxidants and flavonols.
- Organic Vanilla Flavor – for an antioxidant boost and to make it extra creamy (gives it a more “milk chocolate” taste).
Our Hot Cocoa Collagen is DAIRY-FREE, keto-friendly, lectin-free, and low FODMAP!
