Try this creamy comforting super healthy and delicious Golden Turmeric Latte! It’s the perfect mid afternoon pick me up or before bed wind down treat. Wait what? How can it be both invigorating AND relaxing?!? When we use nutrition support as medicine our body has the opportunity to use the active properties within the food to support whatever system is lacking and needing help the most!
Keep in mind that not all turmeric is created equal. This is one I recommend as far as sourcing.
Golden Turmeric Latte
Easy, creamy, (dairy free) nutrient packed golden milk. Filled with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich ingredients.
- 1 tbsp Ginger (grated)
- 1 cup Canned Coconut Milk
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 tbsp Raw Honey
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 1/2 tsp Coconut Oil

Grate the ginger then squeeze the juice out of it into a saucepan. Discard the pulp. Add the remaining ingredients to the saucepan and place over medium heat. Heat through for about 3 to 5 minutes, not letting it come to a boil. Whisk continuously.
-
Carefully transfer into a mason jar and seal with a lid. Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds, or until a foam starts to form. (Note: You can also use a blender for this step, but the turmeric can stain the blender cup.) Pour into glasses through a sieve and enjoy!

Use Fresh Turmeric Root
Skip the turmeric powder and use fresh turmeric root instead. Peel turmeric root and grate. Measure out about 1 tbsp grated turmeric root per serving.
-
Avoid a Mess
Rinse all glasses and mugs out right after use to avoid turmeric stains. Use baking soda on turmeric stains if they do happen.

On-the-Go
Add all ingredients except water to a mason jar. When ready to drink, just add hot water from the kettle and shake up for a warming, anti-inflammatory snack.
