Infused with the golden hue and numerous benefits of turmeric, it's not just a drink—it's a delightful experience.

This latte owes its vibrant color and health benefits to the star ingredient: turmeric. Pair that with creamy almond milk, a pinch of black pepper (to enhance turmeric's benefits), and spicy ginger, and you have a tantalizing beverage. Maple syrup adds a touch of sweetness, while a hint of cinnamon rounds out the flavors beautifully.
Begin by combining almond milk in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in ground turmeric, freshly grated ginger, a dash of cinnamon, and a pinch of black pepper. Allow it to warm gently, infusing the spices with the milk without bringing it to a boil. Once heated through, stir in maple syrup for a natural sweetness.
After the mixture has cooled, strain it into a pitcher and refrigerate until chilled. Serve over ice for a deliciously cool refreshment. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a slice of fresh ginger for an added touch.
Feel free to swap almond milk for oat or coconut milk depending on your preference, or add a dash of vanilla extract for another layer of flavor. This creamy delight pairs excellently with a light breakfast of fresh fruit or a vegan pastry.
