Heating & Frothing Milk
Making a delicious Superfood Latte is as easy as blend, froth, and sip! A key step to achieving that creamy, dreamy texture is perfectly frothed milk.
We’ll guide you through several methods to heat and froth your milk using tools you might already have in your kitchen. Let’s dive into each option so you can find your favorite way to prepare the perfect Superfood Latte!
Handheld Frother
Compact and convenient, a handheld frother is perfect for those who prefer a more hands-on approach!
First, heat your milk on the stovetop or in the microwave. Then, you can either add the Superfood Latte Blend to the warm milk and froth directly in the pot or mug, or froth the milk alone and pour it into a mug where your Blend and hot water are already mixed. Don't forget to check out our own Blume Milk Frother to make this process even simpler!
Milk Steamer
For those who love a good machine-assisted froth, the milk steamer is ideal! Add your Superfood Latte Blend to a milk pitcher and let the steamer do the work, or steam the milk solo and pour it into a pre-prepared mixture of Blend and hot water in your mug. This tool is fantastic for achieving a fine, café-quality froth.
Countertop Milk Frother
Similar to a Milk Steamer, a Countertop Frother is very convenient. You can either add your Superfood Latte Blend directly to the frother with the milk and let it do all the work, or froth the milk separately and pour it into a cup with your pre-prepared mixture of Blend and hot water. Either way, you’ll get a smooth, velvety froth that blends seamlessly with your latte!
Stovetop
If you prefer to keep things simple and traditional, the stovetop method is for you! Heat your milk in a pot on the stove—feel free to whisk in your Superfood Latte Blend for an all-in-one approach, or heat the milk separately and add it to a mug with your pre-prepared mixture of Blend and hot water.
Microwave
Short on time? The microwave can come to your rescue! Just heat your milk in the microwave, then pour it into a mug over your pre-prepared mixture of Superfood Latte Blend and hot water. Stir well, and you’ll have a warm, comforting latte ready in no time. This is a quick and easy way to enjoy your latte without any extra equipment!
French Press
A French Press isn’t just for coffee! Heat and froth your milk by pumping the press up and down after adding warm milk. Then, simply pour the frothy milk into a mug with your ready mixture of Superfood Latte Blend and hot water. It's a fun and interactive way to achieve a frothy texture and get that perfect blend of flavors.
Choosing Your Milk
Wondering which plant milks work the best with our Superfood Latte Blends? Here are our faves, but as always, choose your own path of flavours, there’s no wrong choice!
- Almond or Cashew Milk: These add a nuttiness to your drinks especially when warmed up. They also froth well if you’re looking for a barista-worthy latte.
- Soy Milk: The OG plant milk, full of healthy fats and always a great option for our spiced up blends like Turmeric and Oat Milk Chai.
- Oat Milk: Overall fave. It froths beautifully and has a light taste that complements all blends. The barista version will typically deliver the best froth.
Sweeteners
All of our blends contain a maximum 1g of natural sugar per serving which naturally occur in the ingredients we use. We don’t add any refined sugars so that you can control how sweet your bevvies are. If you’re looking to sweeten your latte up, these are our faves:
- Maple Syrup
- Agave Syrup
- Honey

Frequently Asked Q’s!
How do I get it to mix better?
Getting the perfect mix is super easy! Start by mixing your Superfood Latte Blend with a splash of hot water to get a smooth base. Then, heat your favourite milk and give it a good froth until it’s fluffy and cloud-like. We love using rich oat milk, barista-quality milk, or coconut milk for the creamiest results!
But remember, a little bit of sediment is normal with all natural products. Consider skipping the last sip if you’re experiencing some sediment.
Why is there sediment at the bottom of my cup?
It's perfectly normal to find some sediment at the bottom of your cup—that’s just part of the charm of using all natural ingredients! Since we use whole ground spices and ingredients to maximize their health benefits, they don’t fully dissolve in water. This can leave a bit of texture, but it’s a good thing! It means you’re getting the most out of your superfoods. To keep things evenly mixed, just give your latte a friendly stir with a spoon occasionally. This way, you’ll enjoy a perfect blend of flavour in every sip.
How to make the flavour softer or stronger?
Start with 1 teaspoon of our blend! If it’s a bit too bold for your taste, feel free to use a little less for a softer flavour. Craving something richer? Go ahead and add a slightly heaping teaspoon. Play around with the amounts until you hityourdesired flavour.
Can I just use water instead of milk?
Our Superfood Latte Blends are designed to pair with milk to make the most of their creamy, dreamy potential. We recommend sticking with milk to enjoy them at their best, as water alone might not give you that rich texture we all love.
How to get a smoother blend?
- For a silkier, smoother latte, using a milk steamer or milk frother (handheld/countertop) is the way to go! These tools help to perfectly integrate the Superfood Latte Blend into the milk.
- Choose a high-quality milk like rich oat milk, barista-quality milk, or coconut milk, as these options froth well and enhance the creamy texture of your drink. Almond, rice, and hemp milks tend to be thinner and may not froth as well.
- Adding a bit of sweetener can also help to suspend the blend more evenly throughout your drink.
What pairing go well together?
Looking to mix things up with your Superfood Lattes? For a dreamy twist, top your Matcha Coconut Latte with Blue Lavender Foam (get the recipe here). If you’re in the mood for something sweet and decadent, try pairing our Reishi Hot Cacao Blend with our Salted Caramel Blend to whip up a luxurious Chocolate Caramel Latte.
Don’t have a frother?
No problem! You can still enjoy a delicious Superfood Latte. A simple way to mix your latte smoothly is to first make a liquid mixture with the Superfood Latte Blend and a splash of hot water in your cup. Stir it until it’s smooth. Then, heat your milk separately in a microwave or on the stovetop. Once it’s warm, pour it slowly into your cup with the mixture, stirring as you pour.

Frequently Asked Q’s!
How Often Should I Drink SuperBelly?
Every day! Science shows that probiotics should be taken daily. Probiotics are transient, meaning they enter our gut, influence the bacteria balance, and are excreted. Taking them every single day is the best way to get the happiest gut 🙂
We recommend maintaining a two-hour window between taking antibiotics and drinking SuperBelly, and vice versa. Antibiotics can kill probiotics, so leaving a couple of hours in between can help ensure you’re getting all of SuperBelly’s benefits!
How many glasses of SuperBelly can I drink in a day?
It’s different for everyone! We use inulin as a prebiotic dietary fiber to support a healthy gut biome, and for some people large amounts of inulin can cause bloating and discomfort, especially the first few times you introduce it to your diet. We only use 1g of inulin per serving, so we recommend starting with a glass of SuperBelly a day for a week, then try adding a second pack, with 6-8 hours in between. See how your body reacts, and if there’s no upset, feel free to drink SuperBelly throughout the day at your own pace.
How do I know if SuperBelly is right for me?
SuperBelly was made for anyone who needs a lil’ extra help with their gut (AKA most of us!)
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, we always recommend checking in with a doctor or trusted healthcare professional before adding anything new to your routine, especially if any ingredients are new to you.
Blumies with IBS should also consult a trusted healthcare professional, since SuperBelly contains inulin, which is a fructan and not part of the FODMAP diet. That said, research shows that inulin is beneficial for those with IBS-C or with constipation, so it’s always best to double check to see if adding SuperBelly to your routine makes sense for you!
What does SuperBelly taste like?
Strawberry Hibiscus:Think of a tart and juicy pink lemonade with a subtle hint of tropical hibiscus.
Açai Pomegranate:Dark juicy berries are swirled with lusciously tart açai and exotic pomegranate for a perfectly balanced and subtly sweet refresher.
Lemon Ginger:It's like a light lemonade with a grounding hint of ginger – soothing and familiar, earthy yet refreshing.
Is SuperBelly organic?
All of our ingredients are organic or non-GMO. Some of SuperBelly’s ingredients, like citric acid and probiotics, aren’t available as organic certified ingredients, so we aren’t able to make any claims around SuperBelly being 100% organic (...yet! We’re always looking for new suppliers of organic-certified ingredients and will update our community as we go).
What probiotic do you use and why?
SuperBelly’s probiotic is bc30TM (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6068) - we’ve done the research, and chose bc30 because it’s spore-forming, shelf stable, and backed by over 25 published papers to prove it can support digestive health, immune health, and protein utilization.
SuperBelly’s probiotic has a shell to protect it from pH, heat, cold and pressures, which means it doesn’t activate until you drink it. It’s also shelf stable, so it will outlast SuperBelly’s 18 month shelf life (in the super unlikely event that you don’t get through your SuperBelly stash in time!).
What is the shelf life of SuperBelly?
SuperBelly has a shelf life of 18 months! We recommend storing our products in a cool, dry spot, like a pantry or cupboard, to keep the ingredients fresh.
What are the ingredients in SuperBelly?
Strawberry Hibiscus:Apple cider vinegar powder*, Inulin* (Jerusalem artichoke*), Citric acid, Natural flavour*, Beetroot, carrot and blueberry concentrate*, Pink Himalayan salt, Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086, Strawberry juice powder*, Lime juice powder*, Stevia extract*, Hibiscus powder*, Acerola cherry juice concentrate*.
