I was recently approached by a new company to develop some plant based recipes using their four main adaptogen blends which included their "MUSE" blend, "ALCHEMIST" blend, "IMMORTAL" blend & lastly their "LUMINOUS" blend.
This dish was made using their Luminous blend made from Goji Berry, He Shou Wu, Camu Camu, Schizandra & Lucuma.

"Two Sisters - Two Sister Cities
On her way to Panama to harvest coffee, Cindy stopped in L.A. to visit her sister, Nancy. Cindy joined Nancy in her ritual of practicing daily yoga, drinking juice, and doing cleanses. For six months, Cindy and Nancy hopped from juice bar to juice bar, falling in love with the flavors of the very best juices.
The sisters created Los Angeles Cold Press when they discovered that they couldn’t exist in Berlin without bringing the L.A. experience of ‘bottled sunshine’ and transformation and with them.
We started with juice bar pop up in 2014 and, by sharing our experiences felt like we were creating a bit of our California Dream in Berlin. Since we founded the company, we have hosted workshops, events and retreats and began developing an entire conscious lifestyle brand, aiming to link what we see as two sister cities through the creation of a connected conscious community.
