Ingredients
Dairy
- 1 1/2 cup Milk full-fat or skim
Spices and Sweetener
- 2 Tbsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 Tbsp Sugar brown sugar, honey, or maple syrup to taste, stevia
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon ground
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom ground
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the milk, turmeric powder, sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking and scorching. Bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer helps the spices infuse the milk fully.
- Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. This gentle simmer ensures the turmeric doesn't become bitter.
- Remove from heat and strain the latte through a fine-mesh sieve into mugs. This removes any spice particles and creates a smooth, velvety texture.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, soothing, and aromatic Turmeric Latte.

What happened to the other 1/2 cup of milk? The recipe asks for 2 cups but the directions say 1 1/2 cups milk to be put into the pan.
