We've all been there one-too-many times - a great night, followed by a groggy, puffy and very…well, rounded morning. Still in the thick of festivities, if you're hoping to snugly jiggle into your glittering fit for the evening, Harvard-trained doctor, Dr. Saurabh Sethi has just the brekky options for you.
Unsweetened matcha latte Ingredients: matcha powder (ceremonial grade preferred) - 1tsp, hot water - 1/3 cup, almond or oat milk - 1/2 cup Method: Add the matcha powder to a small, flat-bottomed bowl and swirl with the matcha whisk to avoid clumping. Pour in the hot water and gently whisk in a W-shape to foam while your milk warms. Use a frother to foam the warmed almond or oat milk. Pour the matcha concoction into your cup followed by the milk. A teaspoon of agave goes great with this though Dr. Sethi recommends having this unsweetened. (recipe from Two Spoons) Want something a little more filling? Look no further than option 2. Berry-almond milk smoothie Ingredients: Frozen raspberries - 3/4 cup, frozen blueberries - 1/2 cup, almond milk - 3/4 cup, Greek yoghurt - 2tbsps Method: Simply blend all ingredients till thick and smooth and serve immediately. (recipe from Fresh Apron) Want a slightly desi kick? A tall glass of creamy, unsweetened lassi also works great! Lassi Ingredients: Fresh curd - 2 cups, cold water/milk - 1 cup, cardamom powder - 1tsp, saffron strands - 10 to 12, ice cubes - 6 to 8, chopped nuts - 1 to 2tbsps Method: Simply whisk the curd by hand or machine until it becomes smooth. Then go in with the milk or water and ice cubes and repeat the process till a frothy layer forms atop. Add the spicing and nuts as per taste and enjoy.
