Ingredients

Scale

Liquid Ingredients

  • 23 cups milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Spices

  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch ground cardamom

Others

  • Ice (for shaking and serving)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a cocktail shaker, add 2-3 cups of your preferred milk, 3 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 ½ teaspoons of ground turmeric, ¼ teaspoon each of ground cinnamon and ground ginger, a pinch of ground black pepper, a pinch of ground cardamom, ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract, and ice. These ingredients form the vibrant and flavorful base of the latte.
  2. Shake Thoroughly: Secure the lid tightly on the cocktail shaker, then shake vigorously for about 2 minutes. This step ensures that the spices are well incorporated with the milk and sweetener, distributing the flavors evenly and chilling the mixture.
  3. Serve Over Fresh Ice: Prepare your serving glasses by adding fresh ice cubes. Strain the shaken turmeric latte from the shaker into the glasses over the ice. Avoid transferring the shaken ice to keep the drink smooth and refreshing. Serve immediately to enjoy the best flavor and chill.

Notes

  • Maple syrup can be adjusted or replaced with honey or agave nectar according to preference.
  • Use dairy or non-dairy milk such as almond, oat, or coconut milk depending on dietary needs.
  • For a creamier texture, use whole milk or add a splash of coconut cream.
  • Adjust the amount of spices based on your taste preference—more turmeric for a stronger earthy flavor or additional cinnamon for warmth.
  • Black pepper enhances turmeric’s absorption and adds a subtle bite; do not skip it.
  • This recipe can also be enjoyed hot; simply omit the ice and warm the mixture on the stove instead of shaking.
