In celebration of Pride Month and the local LGBTQ community in Texas, Austin-based Juice Society added the 'Love Latte' to its menu.
The vibrant, rainbow-colored beverage is tinted by a range of boldly hued superfood ingredients, including everything from matcha green tea powder to blue-green algae and maqui berries. With the purchase of each Love Latte, Juice Society is donating a dollar to the Equality Texas organization, which is on a mission to end discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity or expression.
In recent months, dazzling multi-colored food and beverage products—like the photogenic Starbucks' Unicorn Frappuccino—have seen a surge in popularity, which will only help to increase the appeal of the superfood Love Latte and hopefully see it shared generously on social media.
