Turmeric Ginger Latte
2 cup coconut milk
1 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp raw honey
pinch of salt
dash pepper
tsp coconut oil
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the coconut milk. Stir in the turmeric, ginger, and pepper. Simmer, but do not boil, for about 5 min. Stir in the honey and coconut oil.
Instructions
Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth.
Pour into a small saucepan and heat for 3-5 minutes over medium heat until hot, but not boiling.
Drink immediately.
Notes
This may stain blenders and countertops. The color will eventually fade, but making a thick paste of baking soda and water and scrubbing the stain can help.
Recipe can be halved or doubled if needed.
This turmeric ginger broth from Kettle & Fire is perfect for the bone broth option.

And another :)
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
1 1/2 cups nut milk
1 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/4 tsp ground ginger (see notes for fresh*)
1 whole cinnamon stick (or 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon // I prefer the stick!)
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1 pinch ground black pepper
Sweetener of choice (i.e. maple syrup, coconut sugar, or stevia to taste)
Instructions
To a small saucepan, add coconut milk, almond milk, ground turmeric, ground ginger, cinnamon stick, coconut oil, black pepper, and sweetener of choice (I usually add 1 Tbsp (15 ml) maple syrup // amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
Whisk to combine and warm over medium heat. Heat until hot to the touch but not boiling - about 4 minutes - whisking frequently.
Turn off heat and taste to adjust flavor. Add more sweetener to taste or more turmeric or ginger for intense spice + flavor.
Serve immediately, dividing between two glasses and leaving the cinnamon stick behind. Best when fresh, though leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or microwave until hot.
Notes
*If using fresh ginger, I suggest grating 1-2 Tbsp (amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) into the mixture and then using a fine mesh strainer when serving to strain out the ginger for creamy texture.
*Nutrition information is a rough estimate calculated without sweetener.
