Description
This latte is best iced. The recipe looks intimidating but is super easy and delicious on a hot day. You can try more turmeric, but be careful! It is strong. But hey, if that’s what you like, go for it.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Coconut Milk
- ½ teaspoons Turmeric, Or Twice The Amount If You Dare
- 1 teaspoon Lime Juice
- ⅛ teaspoons Cinnamon
- 2 pinches Cardamom (preferably The Green Variety)
- 2 pinches Black Pepper
- 1 pinch Sea Salt
- 1 piece (1/2-inch Size) Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Hot Water
Preparation
In a Mason jar, add milk, turmeric, lime juice, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, and salt. Make sure your jar has a tight fitting lid.
For the ginger, you can grate it but I prefer to use a trick my mom taught me: use a garlic press. So much faster and easier. Add to Mason jar. Screw lid on and shake vigorously 10 times. Put a timer on for 5 minutes and let steep.
Meanwhile, make the honey syrup. Combine honey and hot water in a separate small bowl and stir well. If some of the honey will not melt, add another 1/2 teaspoon hot water.
After the timer goes off, add honey syrup and shake again. Strain latte and add to cups filled with ice. Serve immediately with a dash of cinnamon on top.
