Chocolate Collagen Hojicha Latte Recipe
If you’re looking for a functional drink that feels indulgent yet supports your wellness routine, this Chocolate Collagen Hojicha Latte is the perfect upgrade to your daily cup. Featuring Vital Proteins Chocolate Collagen Peptides and inspired by the creativity of Matcha Playground, this recipe blends deep roasted tea notes with rich chocolate collagen for a smooth, nourishing treat.
Hojicha, a roasted Japanese green tea, is known for its naturally low caffeine content and warm, nutty flavour profile. When paired with chocolate collagen, it creates a comforting latte that not only tastes good but also supports skin, hair, and joint health. It’s an easy way to elevate your daily collagen intake without relying on the usual coffee or smoothie formats.
Chocolate Collagen Hojicha Latte
Ingredients:
- 4 tbsp Chocolate Collagen
- 100 ml milk of choice
- 5 g hojicha powder
- 50 ml water (80°C)
- Sweetener (optional)
Method A — Whisk
- Whisk hojicha powder into hot water (80°C) until fully dissolved.
- Stir chocolate collagen into milk until smooth.
- Combine hojicha with the collagen milk. Stir and enjoy hot, or pour over ice for a refreshing version.
Method B — Blender or Shaker
- Add hojicha powder, chocolate collagen, and milk into a blender or shaker.
- Blend or shake until smooth and frothy. Serve immediately.
For best results, use oat or coconut milk—both enhance the roasted hojicha notes while complementing the chocolate richness of the collagen. The result is a balanced, café-style drink that feels like a treat but works hard behind the scenes.
Whether you’re starting your morning or winding down in the evening, this latte is a simple, elevated way to enjoy your collagen routine—without compromising on flavour.
