Vanilla Turmeric Latte
An earthy, sweet, frothy drink made with turmeric, ginger, cinnamon and vanilla that's loaded with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups 12oz canned coconut milk*
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- a few grinds of fresh black pepper a small pinch
- 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
- 1/2-1 Tablespoon raw honey or maple syrup**
Instructions
- 1. Warm coconut milk, vanilla and spices in a pot over medium heat (or in a microwave safe container for 1-2 minutes) until hot, but not boiling.
- 2. Transfer hot liquid to a blender with coconut oil and honey, and blend until thick and frothy (about 20 seconds). Pour into a large mug and enjoy!
Notes
*Full-fat canned coconut milk yields the best tasting latte. Whole milk would also work well in this recipe.
**Use as much or as little honey as you like to make this sweet enough. I preferred it with a heaping 1/2 Tablespoon.
