    WHAT IS THE GOLDEN LATTE?

    Golden milk is a traditional Indian drink that is used to help treat and sooth many diseases. In its classic simple form, it is a blend of hot milk, ground turmeric and other warm spices like cinnamon and cloves. To get the most out of turmeric, it must be consumed with black pepper.

    ASK THE DIETITIAN,

    ARE GOLDEN MILK LATTES GOOD FOR YOU?

    Yes! Golden milk is loaded with antioxidants and is excellent for your health! Golden milk can help with gut health, lowering inflammation, clearing skin, and so much more. Golden milk powder is a recipe that is widely used in ayurveda practices and can help almost every malady out there!

    TURMERIC LATTE BENEFITS (GOLDEN LATTE BENEFITS)

    Turmeric is one of the most widely studied spices for its healing benefits. It contains powerful compounds called curcuminoids. Curcuminoids have been linked to:

    • Decreasing inflammation
    • Increased body's antioxidant capacity
    • Boosts brain derived neurotrophic factor (for better brain health)
    • Lowers risk of heart disease
    • Helps prevent cancer, and some studies suggest that it can help treat cancer
    • Alzheimer's prevention
    • Helps treat depression
    • Helps delay aging and age related diseases

    The other ingredients used in this are cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and black pepper. These have also shown effective in reducing inflammation in the body!

    What could be better than a delicious and powerfully therapeutic drink!

    FAQ'S

    More frequently asked questions about golden milk latte mix.

    WHY DOES TURMERIC HAVE TO BE DRANK WITH BLACK PEPPER?

    Without black pepper, turmeric is very unavailable to your body. When you combine turmeric with black pepper, it increases the absorption rate by a lot!! With just 1/20 of a teaspoon of black pepper in your turmeric latte, you can increase its absorption in your body immensely! Which means it is much more health beneficial.

    WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DRINK TURMERIC MILK EVERY DAY?

    If you drink turmeric milk every day, you might start seeing improvement in areas of your health that have been not so good.

    WHAT IS THE BEST TIME TO DRINK GOLDEN MILK?

    You can drink it any time of day! It is a non caffeinated beverage so some people like to drink it warm right before bed to wind down.

    WHAT HAPPENS IF WE DRINK TURMERIC MILK EVERY NIGHT?

    Turmeric can help with insomnia problems, so drinking it right before bed might help you get into REM sleep faster and stay asleep for longer.

    DOES TURMERIC HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT?

    Turmeric's main ability is in reducing inflammation. Since obesity causes inflammation, turmeric can definitely help with that and would be part of a great weight loss plan.

      Hi. Just wondering why your recipe doesn’t include nutmeg since you mention it in the post?
      Thank you - excited to try this!

      March 18, 2022 at 4:50 pm

      oo sorry good catch I meant cloves in that paragraph not nutmeg! But nutmeg does actually sound really nice.. if you add it, add about 1/2 teaspoon with all the other spices in the recipe card. Thanks again for that catch!! <3

      I just found your recipe for the Turmeric Latte mix. I just want to confirm it is 1 cup turmeric powder to all the other ingredients

      Is this mixed with hot water? How much of the mix to liquid? This is new to me.

    8. Rosemary

      January 01, 2023 at 5:36 pm

      Hi Louise good question! Usually 1 teaspoon of the mix with 1 cup hot milk and 1 tablespoon of honey! Here's a classic turmeric latte recipe: https://thehintofrosemary.com/golden-milk-latte-vegan-and-df/

      Excellent. Didn’t make the mix but used a little bit of each spice in the recipe in plain almond milk. Very refreshing. Thanks for the yummy recipe. I will be sharing it 😊.

      Update.. I had my kids try this golden milk and they are in love with it. My son texted me at work asking me how I make the “ golden milk”. So I made the full recipe and the container sits on my kitchen counter for convenience. I have also shared the recipe with my family and friends ❤️ thank you Rosemary .

      Can you substitute the blk pepper for Cayenne? Blk pepper causes inflammation doesn't it?

      People should be sure to monitor their turmeric intake with certain health conditions and medications...with my blood pressure meds my doc said one to
      two teaspoons day of this mix should be fine, just don't overdo it...

      Can you omit the cardamom? maybe use nutmeg?

    16. Rosemary

      January 08, 2024 at 1:25 am

      Black pepper helps to increase the absorption of the turmeric so it's a must! And as far as I know, I've never heard that black pepper causes any inflammation unless you're allergic

    17. Rosemary

      January 08, 2024 at 1:28 am

      yes of course!

      So I just came upon this recipe, and had no idea it would taste so delicious, like a chai tea latte. And most importantly the first drink I had, my stomach felt better and the inflammation in my body was instantly down and I had more energy. I am so impressed with this!! This is definitely a keeper! Thanks so much for sharing this, it’s not only helping me but others in my family too! Awesome!!
