Ingredients
1 (or 2) shots of certified organic, eco-friendly, Ethical Coffee
1 Whole Banana
1 tbsp Tropeaka Boost Powder
1 tbsp Cacao Powder
1 tsp Pure Harvest Coco2 Cocoa Hazelnut Spread
A hand full of Hazelnuts
A pinch of Cinnamon
A Sprinkle of Coconut shreds
and plant based milk of choice (to desired consistency)

It is as easy as that!
Tips:

Did you know that your current cleaning routine probably incorporates products that are not good for the environment or your health?
Don't worry we've got you covered! Here are 3 simply alternatives to make cleaning more sustainable!
Coconut fibre scrub pad
I know, I know. What on earth is this and why do I need it? Well, you know those scratchy tools you use, yep they are all made from plastic. Coconut fibre is totally biodegradable and hygienic so you really cannot go wrong!
Biodegradable sponge cloth
When looking for a sponge cloth, search for something not only washable but biodegradable so when your done with it, you can chuck it in the compost and let nature do the work for you!
Clean-cleaners
It is so easy to simply jump at the cheapest cleaner in the supermarket but when it comes down to the environment and your health you need to read the label. Make sure what you are buy is toxin-free and does not contain ingredients such as palm oil that are destroying our rainforests!
This is especially important for dish cleaners and soaps that can be physically ingested into the body.

It appears Australia is FINALLY following in the footsteps of other countries when it comes to the ban of one-time use plastic bag.
South Australia, Northern Territory, ACT and Tasmania have already placed bans on the plastic bag. Western Australia, Queensland and Victoria will follow their lead, implementing their own laws in July. However, New South Wales appears to be lagging behind...
Supermarket chains such as Aldi have never allowed plastic bags but it appears the big two are going to follow. Woolworths on June 20th and Coles on July 1st.
It is a monumental moment for Australia as we finally make a move in reducing our overconsumption of plastic. From July onwards Australians will be forced to bring their own reusable bags to the shops with them and we are not upset about it.
