Turmeric Latte (Tested Extensively)
Turmeric Latte, or Golden Milk Latte, is a jazzed up version of traditional Indian Golden Milk that is warming, nourishing (anti-inflammatory), delicious, and easy to make. The recipe has been extensively tested: I've tried it with fresh turmeric vs turmeric powder, with and without vanilla, as well as with cow's milk, almond milk, coconut milk, and macademia milk.
