Golden Milk Turmeric Latte
This Golden Milk Turmeric Latte is a healing drink that will help reduce inflammation, stress and can be enjoyed before bed to help you sleep!
In the winter time, you can be sure to always find me with a warm drink in hand. Besides enjoying sipping on some yummy warming liquids, I love holding onto a hot mug to keep my hands warm in these colder months! (Hi, poor circulations in my hands!)
So lately I’ve had a cup of this golden milk turmeric latte in hand at all time when I need my warm drink in the afternoon or evening. I like to limit myself to having just one cup of coffee per day, so this turmeric latte is a great caffeine-free alternative!
This Golden Milk Turmeric Latte is my favourite non-caffeinated warming drink to enjoy. It’s made with turmeric, cinnamon, ginger and vanilla for a soothing bedtime tonic to enjoy in the evening.
Golden milk turmeric latte benefits:
Oh boy, there are SO many great health benefits to a turmeric latte my friends! To name off a few…
- anti-inflammatory
- Can improve mood and brain functioning
- Is antibacterial
- Can boost your immune system
- Improve digestion
Pretty great, right? Turmeric is an ancient root that has been shown to have some incredible benefits and has been used in holistic medicine for a long time. It got its nickname as being “the golden spice” from its bright cold colour…hence a golden milk latte!
Other ingredients in this latte like cinnamon, ginger and cayenne also have some great benefits like improving your digestion and immune system.
So yeah, basically we can conclude that this turmeric latte is where it’s at.
A few notes on the recipe:

Depending on your taste, you may want to add more turmeric (up to 1 tsp) to this recipe. Taste and adjust as you go!
You can also leave out the pinch of black pepper and cayenne if you don’t like spice. These spices have some great digestive properties to them, but make sure to just add a small pinch!

Thanks for the review Victoria! I’m so happy you enjoyed the recipe 🙂
This sounds amazing! I’m very excited to try it!
Curious if this would be good served cold or iced during these hot summer months??
Hi Samatha, yes! it would be great on ice during the summer 🙂
Oh my gosh this is amazing! This was my first time trying a turmeric latte and I only made half the recipe to start (1 latte). My husband (who turns his nose up at anything remotely health), loved it and asked for seconds so we immediately made these again and had two each. I used oat milk and paprika instead of cayenne because that’s all I had, but I’ll definitely use cayenne next time. Amazing recipe, thank you so much Jess! I’m going to implement this is my nighttime routine 🙂

Thanks Gabby! I’m so happy you and your husband both enjoyed it!
