Ingredients
1 Cup of Milk
1/2 Tbsp of Honey
1/2 Tbsp of Coconut Oil
1 Tsp of Ground Organic Turmeric
1/2 Tsp of Cinnamon
Pinch of Fresh Black pepper
1/2 Inch grated Ginger (Optional)
Instructions
In a saucepan add all ingredients whisking them together on medium high heat until it comes to a boil. Be sure to wish your milk to prevent any burning. Once boiled, lower the heat and bring the mixture to a light simmer for 5 minutes.
Strain the mixture to remove ground pepper flakes and pieces of ginger.
This step is optional but I enjoy giving my drink one final blend with a miniature milk frother. This helps to create a lovely layer of milk foam on the top of the latte and ensures that the turmeric is completely blended into the drink. Enjoy.
