Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy, such as almond, oat, or coconut)
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
- Pinch of black pepper (helps with turmeric absorption)
- Optional: A sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Spices: In a small saucepan, whisk together the turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and black pepper. This ensures the spices are evenly distributed and prevents clumping.
- Add Milk: Pour in the milk of your choice. Whisk well to combine the spices with the milk.
- Heat Gently: Place the saucepan over medium-low heat. Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it’s warm but not boiling. Avoid boiling to preserve the nutrients and flavors.
- Sweeten: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the honey (or maple syrup) until it’s fully dissolved. Adjust the amount to your liking.
- Froth (Optional): If you like a frothy latte, you can use a milk frother to create a lovely foam on top. This adds a café-style touch to your homemade drink.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the turmeric and honey latte into your favorite mug. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey for an extra touch of sweetness and visual appeal.
- Enjoy: Sip slowly and savor the warmth and flavor of your homemade latte.
