Ingredients
Scale
Milk Base
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
Spices and Flavorings
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- Pinch of black pepper
- Optional pinch of cayenne pepper for a warming kick
Sweeteners and Extras
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, pour in the almond milk and add the ground turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if desired. Whisk all the ingredients thoroughly to blend the spices evenly into the milk.
- Heat the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture gently while stirring frequently to prevent the spices from settling or burning. Heat until the mixture is hot but not boiling, which should take about 5 minutes.
- Add Sweetener and Flavor: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract to sweeten and enhance the flavor of the latte.
- Froth if Desired: For a creamy, frothy texture, use a milk frother directly in the saucepan or carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until frothy and smooth.
- Serve: Pour the turmeric latte into mugs and serve immediately while warm for the best experience. Optionally, chill the latte and serve over ice for a refreshing cold version.
Notes
- Black pepper boosts the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, so it’s essential not to omit it.
- For extra creaminess, try blending coconut milk with almond milk.
- This latte is versatile and can be enjoyed iced by chilling and serving over ice.
