What’s the Buzz? Superfood Coffee Recipes + Giveaway!

In case you missed it, we recently featured Superfood Coffee Co. as our Friday Find, highlighting their innovative Superfood Coffee blends. The post was such a hit that we’ve brought them back today to share some healthy and delicious recipes--and to partner on an exclusive giveaway!

For many of us, a cup of coffee is a morning ritual that helps us kick off the day’s to-do list. But did you know that — in moderation — coffee can actually be good for you? Studies have found that coffee is actually the number one source of antioxidants for Americans; meaning that, if you are a coffee drinker, you are probably getting more disease fighting antioxidants from your cup of joe than you are from other areas of your diet. This doesn't mean you need to up your coffee intake by any means, as fruits and vegetables are still richer and more nutritious sources of antioxidants, but it does mean that you can enjoy that morning cup.

What we find cool about Superfood Coffee Co. is that they take coffee (a superfood on its own) and pair it with two more super-good-for-you superfoods like maca root and goji berries. The result is a totally unique blend of flavors and health benefits, which takes a traditional drink and makes it even better for you. The combination totally has the potential to change the coffee game. We also like that you can enjoy it as a tasty beverage, or add it to some of your favorite recipes for an extra boost of nutrition.

Below, we’ve shared 2 healthy snack recipes that incorporate superfood instant coffee. If you haven’t gotten your hands on any yet, feel free to substitute with your favorite instant coffee. Or, scroll to the end of the post to enter to win your own!
