Santa's Sprint Challenge

Challenges, SeasonalWhitney Carlson3 Comments

Need a challenge in order to get your cardio in this time of year? It makes it difficult to get motivated to do cardio or even go to the gym when it's cold outside - we understand! Unfortunately, you are going to have to hit the treadmill instead of the trails for this one but at least it's fun and challenging!

As always, adjust this challenge to your current fitness level.

Clean Eat Recipe: Charged Peppermint Almond Hot Chocolate

Drink & Juice RecipesWhitney CarlsonComment

Can we just tell you how much we love Christmastime? It's such a fun time of year and just because you are a clean eater, doesn't mean you should miss out on any (and we said ANY) of the festive drinks available this time of year. Insert your favorite coffee chain here and let's whip up something that will take your taste buds straight through to December!

We have been cooking up some fancy treats with some amazing flavored liquid stevia, Sweet Drops from SweetLeaf. If you haven't had a chance to check them out, you definitely should! Their products are all natural, zero calorie and zero gylcemic response. Check out the flavors - Pumpkin Spice, Peppermint Mocha, Rootbeer - how could you go wrong!?!

Note: We aren't that big of fans of dairy, so we used unsweetened almond milk in this recipe. If you have a craving and don't have any on hand, organic cow's milk will work just as well. 

Charged Peppermint Almond Hot Chocolate

Ingredients:

  • 2/3 c unsweetened almond milk, warm
  • 1/3 c your favorite organic brewed coffee, warm (We love Marley Coffee. It's sustainability grown, ethically farmed, and artisan roasted.)
  • 1 TBSP Sweetleaf Peppermint Mocha Sweet Drops
  • 1 TBSP all-natural, unsweetened cocoa powder


Directions:

1. Warm almond milk, preferably on your stovetop to slightly warmer than desired temperature.

2. Prepare your favorite organic coffee as directed.

3. Mix all ingredients together.

4. Allow mixture to cool to desired temperature prior to drinking. 

This is such a wonderful drink! It's so easy to make and will wow your guests (or your taste buds). You will forget all about that corner coffee shop and start enjoying treats that are as good for you as they taste!

A special thank you to SweetLeaf Sweet Drops for allowing us to try the Sweet Drops and post a recipe.

We had so much fun with the Pumpkin Push-Up Challenge we decided to do a Turkey Challenge for November! We also put these challenges out for ourselves - so we have to do them too!

We could all use a little extra activity during the month of November so I introduce to you our Turkey "Tone It Up" Challenge. I suggest doing this right when you wake up - what a great way to start your day!

This challenge was designed to be something that you do in addition to your normal workout (which is hopefully one of our workout plans!). We have 4, 6, and 12 week workout plans for all fitness levels!

If this is too easy for you - double everything. Too hard? Do what you can!
