Ingredients

2 cups milk plant-based or regular
1 teaspoon turmeric powder up to 2 teaspoons, if desired
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 ½ tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 shot espresso optional

Instructions

In a saucepan, whisk together the milk, turmeric powder, cinnamon, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and espresso (if using).
2 cups milk, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, 2 ½ tablespoons maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 shot espresso
Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture until it is very hot but not boiling. Whisk frequently to prevent scorching.
Taste the latte and adjust sweetness or spice to your liking.
Pour the latte into two mugs and serve immediately.

Notes

For convenience, swap espresso for strong instant coffee. You can also use decaf coffee or chicory coffee for a low-caffeine option.
Stir in some cashew butter or coconut cream to make the drink more luxurious and velvety.
Experiment with spices. Add ground ginger and black pepper for extra warmth or nutmeg for a cozy twist.
On warmer days, pour it over ice for a refreshing golden latte.
If you're dairy-free and vegan, use creamy plant-based milk like almond, coconut, or oat milk.
For a low-sugar diet, reduce the amount of maple syrup, skip it entirely, or replace the maple syrup with stevia.
