Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup milk (almond, oat, coconut, or dairy)
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder (or 1-inch fresh turmeric, grated)
Spices and Enhancers:
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger powder (or 1/2-inch fresh ginger, grated)
- 1 pinch black pepper
Optional Additions:
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil or ghee
Instructions
- Gently heat milk in a saucepan over medium-low temperature, monitoring carefully to prevent scorching or boiling.
- Incorporate turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper into the warming milk, whisking thoroughly to create a smooth, unified blend.
- Allow the spice-infused liquid to simmer for approximately 5 minutes, stirring intermittently to ensure even flavor distribution and prevent ingredient settlement.
- Enhance the latte’s richness by introducing honey or maple syrup, then integrate coconut oil or ghee for additional depth and creamy texture.
- If utilizing fresh turmeric or ginger root, carefully strain the golden elixir through a fine mesh strainer directly into a waiting mug, ensuring a silky-smooth consistency.
- Serve immediately while piping hot, garnishing with an optional sprinkle of ground cinnamon or turmeric for visual appeal and extra aromatic complexity.
- Pause momentarily to appreciate the vibrant color and inhale the warm, comforting fragrance before indulging in this nourishing, golden-hued beverage.
Notes
- Choose fresh, high-quality ground turmeric for the most vibrant flavor and maximum health benefits.
- Whisk ingredients thoroughly to prevent spice clumping and ensure smooth, even distribution throughout the latte.
- Opt for plant-based milk alternatives like almond or oat milk to make the recipe vegan-friendly and accommodate dairy sensitivities.
- Add a pinch of black pepper to enhance turmeric’s absorption, maximizing its anti-inflammatory properties and nutritional potential.
