Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1.25 cup plain unsweetened non-dairy milk (almond, oat, or coconut work great)
  • 0.5-1 tsp agave nectar (or other natural sweetener, adjust to taste)
  • 0.5 tsp grated fresh ginger (or more if you enjoy extra spice)
  • 0.25 tsp ground turmeric
  • 0.125 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.125 tsp ground cardamom (optional, for an aromatic touch)
  • 0.0625 tsp black pepper (a pinch for absorption)
  • 0.0625 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick)
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)

Equipment

  • Small Saucepan
  • Whisk
  • Measuring spoons
  • Mug
  • Grater

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, pour in 1 1/4 cups of plain unsweetened non-dairy milk. Place it over medium heat.
  2. Once the milk is warm (but not boiling), add the grated fresh ginger, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, and if using, the ground cardamom, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir well to combine.
  3. Mix in the agave nectar or your preferred natural sweetener, adjusting the amount based on your sweetness preference.
  4. Continue heating the mixture while whisking vigorously. This helps to froth the milk and ensures all the spices are evenly distributed.
  5. Once everything is blended and heated through, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract if desired.
  6. Pour your Delicious Anti-inflammatory Turmeric Latte into a mug. Optionally, sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top for garnish. Sip slowly, and enjoy the warmth and flavor!

Notes

  • For the best flavor, use fresh ginger rather than powdered ginger.
  • Experiment with different non-dairy milks; each type will impart a different flavor profile.
  • If you prefer a creamier texture, consider using full-fat coconut milk.
