What do you need to make a Golden Milk (Turmeric) Latte?

• Canned Coconut Milk: works best. But if you do not have canned coconut milk on hand, you can use carton coconut milk or any other non-dairy milk.
• Non-dairy Milk: I’ve made this golden milk with almond milk and oat milk. Both options work great but you can use your preferred non-dairy milk.
• Ground Turmeric: The key ingredient here. The recipe calls for 1 ½ teaspoon of ground turmeric. I tend to add up to 2 tsp for a fuller flavor and richer color.
• Ground Cinnamon: The cinnamon brings a warm sweetness to the drink. You can also use a cinnamon stick to make this drink as well.
• Ground Ginger: works best for this recipe. I have not tried this drink with fresh ginger, so if you do let me know how it goes!
• Black Pepper: The black pepper activates the curcumin and medicinal properties in the turmeric. Just a pinch is needed and the flavor is not prominent in the drink.
• Vanilla Extract: Just a bit of vanilla is needed for this drink.
• Maple Syrup: Is the perfect natural sweetener for Golden Milk, but you can also use coconut sugar or date syrup. (or Stevia if you’re Keto)

How to Make Golden-Turmeric Milk?

Making Golden Milk is simple and quick. Just add all the ingredients to a small saucepan then whisk over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes. Warming the ingredients activates the nutritional properties of the drink.

You can serve the drink immediately or drink it warm. Or you can store it in a mason jar or carafe for later. If you want to drink your Golden Milk Latte iced (cold), first allow the drink to cool down to room temperature before adding ice for the best results.

Simply fill up your glass halfway with ice and almond milk and pour the Turmeric Milk into the drink. As a result, the drink has a beautiful ombre look. Finally, enjoy!
