My Favorite Turmeric Latte Mix (+ How to throw a tad healthier party for kids)

March 8, 2020 By elviira 4 Comments

Turmeric latte is one of the most delicious ways to boost immunity and retain your energy levels. Preparing your own Turmeric Latte Mix guarantees that the flavors match your preferences, and you always have some mix at hand when you fancy a mug of a piping hot golden milk. Needless to say, the mix makes an excellent gift when packed into a beautifully decorated jar.

This is my version of this trendy drink mix. I came up with this recipe when I was running out of the ready Turmeric Latte Mix I have used for long. Like this, I could tweak the recipe as I want and make it match my taste buds. And as I prefer my Turmeric Latte hot and spicy, I also prefer to add a pinch of a secret ingredient for an extra kick and a hint of smokiness.

Personally, I add this Turmeric Latte Mix to my morning coffee with heavy cream — but you can use any low-carb liquid. Read below why this mix is so good for you and how to prepare it.

P.S. Scroll to the end of the post to see how to organize a tad healthier party for kids. Last weekend, we threw a birthday party for our son. All the kids enjoyed the sugar-free and grain-free real food!
