2 Simple Summer Collagen Powder Recipes For Wellness From Within

As the days heat up + the nights become more social, the daily health + beauty rituals you’ve stuck to consistently all year can sometimes slip. And that’s OK. Long summer days are made for enjoying. You won’t be the only one who wakes to a beautiful day ~ decides to head to the beach, lake or your fav picnic spot early + forgets to slip your collagen powder into your morning brew.

When it comes to supplementing with collagen powders ~ consistency is key. But how do you stay consistent when the long summer days put a temporary pause on your daily routines + rituals? Discovering new ways to take your collagen powder is a simple way to ensure you don’t miss your daily dose.

Because Adashiko Collagen is flavourless + odourless, with no unnecessary fillers or sweeteners, fully dissolvable + heat-stable it’s ready to mix into anything you fancy - coffee, tea, smoothies, juices, soups, baking, snacks or even a cheeky cocktail or mocktail.
