    Golden milk (turmeric latte) is my go-to drink, especially during the colder winter evenings. I tend to rotate it with this Tangawizi Chai, which is equally delicious and comforting!

    why you will love this golden milk turmeric latte!

    • for starters, this turmeric latte is soothing, delicious and absolutely easy to make!
    • golden milk has been proven to have numerous health benefits! Take a cup before going to bed as it also helps with sleep!
    • it has no caffeine so you don't have to worry about drinking it before bedtime.
    • this turmeric latte uses almond milk instead of regular dairy, making it vegan. It is also keto-friendly, with a paleo option (I say this, because while erythritol may be considered paleo, some people may not prefer to consume it. It is for this reason that this recipe has an alternative paleo-friendly sweetener, in the name of honey or pitted Medjool dates)!!

    benefits of turmeric latte

    • Great for breastfeeding mums: This is only a personal observation, based on my experience. I noticed that my milk production greatly increased whilst I was breastfeeding whenever I drank one glass of turmeric latte per day.
    • Weight-loss: According to research, curcumin is beneficial as it reduces insulin and leptin resistance, sets in gear the fat-burning gene-signals and reduces inflammation.
    • Alzheimer's prevention: One study established that curcumin, which is contained in turmeric, could prevent or slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease by eliminating amyloid plaque build-up in the brain.
    • Anti-inflammatory and painkilling properties: Turmeric is well-known for its pain-killing and anti-inflammatory properties and is listed for example, as a natural pain suppressant in the treatment of arthritis by the Arthritis Foundation.

    turmeric latte ingredients

    You will require the following ingredients:-

    A photo showing the ingredients needed for Keto turmeric latte
    • unsweetened almond milk - or your preferred choice of plant milk.
    • powdered or freshly ground turmeric - freshly ground turmeric gives the best flavour and nutritional benefits but seeing that it may not always be readily available, it is fine to use the powdered one.
    • freshly ground ginger - for the best taste experience and health benefits, I recommend using fresh ginger.
    • ground cardamom, or 6 cardamom pods.
    • ground black pepper - aids the absorption of turmeric as it contains Piperine, a compound that inhibits the breakdown of turmeric in the gut and the liver. It does so by increasing its bio-availability.
    • coconut oil - this golden turmeric latte recipe uses coconut oil, because turmeric contains curcumin, whose absorption in the body is only maximised if it is taken with some healthy fat, such as coconut oil.
    • sweetener (optional) - while this recipe uses low-carb and keto-friendly erythritol, don't be shy to use your preferred sweetener. Use honey, coconut sugar or Medjool dates for paleo.
    • a pinch of ground or grated nutmeg (optional).

      how to make

      • Roast the spices: in a pot or saucepan, roast the cardamom, turmeric, black pepper, and nutmeg for about a minute, or until fragrant.
      • Add almond milk: add the ginger, sweetener (optional) and almond milk in a slow and steady stream, then whisk to combine.
      • Add the coconut oil: finally, add the coconut oil and whisk to allow it to melt.
      • Pour in cups, serve warm, and enjoy!

      useful tips

      • fresh ginger and turmeric give the best flavors, especially in terms of intensity so go ahead and use them if they are readily available to you.
      • different types of milk or cream will give you different degrees of creaminess. Regular dairy cream or coconut milk will make your keto turmeric latte creamier. Almond milk and oat milk on the other hand, are more neutral in taste.
      • Make an iced turmeric latte by allowing the drink to cool immediately, before pouring it over a glass filled with ice.

      variations

      • While this recipe uses almond milk, feel free to use your favorite types of milk or cream, such as regular dairy, coconut, or even oat milk! Keep an eye on the carb count and added sugars, if on a keto diet.
      • Feel free to use your preferred sweetener, in place of the low-carb erythritol.
