Turmeric Latte

The Turmeric Latte, also known as Golden Milk, is a warming and nourishing beverage that combines the health benefits of turmeric with the comfort of a traditional latte. This vegan-friendly recipe harnesses the power of a high-performance blender to create a smooth, frothy drink from plant-based milk and whole food ingredients. The star of this latte is fresh turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties and distinctive golden color. Complemented by fresh ginger, cinnamon, and a touch of natural sweetness from a date, this latte offers a complex flavor profile that's both soothing and invigorating. The addition of black pepper enhances the bioavailability of turmeric's beneficial compounds. This Turmeric Latte is not only a delicious alternative to coffee-based drinks but also a potential boost to the immune system, making it an excellent choice for those looking to incorporate more functional beverages into their daily routine.

Notes

  • You can use any non-dairy milk, but the ones that froth the best are hemp, soy, and almond (in that order).
  • If you don’t have fresh ginger or fresh turmeric, you can use powdered/ground. For the ginger, use 1 + 1/4 tsp (2.25 g) of ground. For the turmeric, use 4 tsp (12 g) of ground.
  • Turmeric is notorious for staining your container. The best way to get rid of the yellow is to leave your container in the sun for a few hours. It will naturally bleach it without using any harsh chemicals.
