Instructions

Whisk all of the ingredients together in a saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking, until steaming hot (don't boil). A stick blender can be used (optional) to reduce sediment and create a light foam on the top. To achieve this, blend for one minute while heating.
Remove from the heat and pour into two cups. Enjoy!

Notes

I make this turmeric latte with almond milk, however any type of milk can be used.
If the turmeric latte is left to sit before consuming, some sediment will settle at the bottom of the cup. Use a spoon to stir before drinking.
To help reduce sediment, use a stick blending while the latte is cooking. This will blend the ingredients together and also create a little foam on top, similar to a latte.
Add a little coconut oil for extra good fats.
Try adding a pinch of cardamom for extra flavour!
The yellow colouring in turmeric will stain just about any surface it touches! Be mindful of white benchtops and clothing. Clean any spills immediately with soap and water.
Try using a natural or Manuka honey for added health benefits.
