I’ve been on a pink kick lately.
Pink leggings on repeat, pink mani/pedi, and now this pink drink.
There have been tons of recipes for the Pink Drink from Starbucks floating around. Some just try to duplicate it and some are making it keto.
I played around a little bit and made a pink drink that is delicious, refreshing and keto friendly.C
Even better, this pretty pink drink can make you even prettier than you already are, since it contains collagen peptides for better skin, nails and hair. This stuff works! Since I’ve been using collagen peptides every day my skin has become firmer and my nails grow like crazy. So my fave pink nail polish looks even better!
Here’s what I used:
Passion Tea from Tazo is what gives this drink its gorgeous color and refreshing tart taste. The hibiscus and rose hips in this tea contribute some vitamin C and antioxidants.
Collagen peptides don’t have any taste and dissolve easily into the tea. They support firmer skin and healthier hair and nails…so this drink can really make you prettier.
Vanilla liquid stevia is my low carb sweetener of choice for this recipe. The vanilla adds a nice note to the tart taste of the tea. Adjust the sweetness to your own personal taste.
Freeze dried strawberriesadd a unique flavor that is much more intense than fresh. You just need a few for a cute little garnish. They last forever in the panty.
Heavy cream is what turns this drink from red to pink. The creamy flavor is a nice contrast to the tartness of the tea. You can use full fat coconut milk or another non-dairy alternative, but I have found the heavy cream to work best in this, both for look and taste.
This is fun and easy to make and it looks amazing!
This recipe makes two drinks…one for you and a happy, healthy and hot friend. You could easily double or triple the base of tea with the collagen and stevia and keep it in the fridge for a few days so you always have a pink drink ready! Just add the cream and freeze dried strawberries when you’re ready to serve.
happy, healthy and hot pink drink
two cups water
one scoop collagen peptides (I use Further Foods)
vanilla liquid stevia (I prefer NuNaturals brand)
two tablespoons heavy cream
a few freeze dried strawberries for garnish
Bring the water to a boil, remove from heat and submerge tea bags. Steep for at least ten minutes
While water is still warm stir in the collagen peptides. Then add the liquid stevia to taste. I used about 20 drops for the two cups tea.
Let the tea chill in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
Fill two glasses with ice and pour the chilled tea. Top with a few freeze dried strawberries for garnish and then the cream. Yum!
Can this pink drink help you feel happy, healthy and hot? Absolutely!
You’ll be happy enjoying a pretty pink drink that is made with healthy ingredients and supports a low carb/keto lifestyle. And with your fit body, glowing skin and gorgeous nails you”ll be hot for sure!
