IMMUNE BOOSTING DRINK
Have you ever tried turmeric latte, also known as golden milk? It is a traditional Ayurvedic drink, usually made with nut milk, turmeric, and other spices.
In this recipe, I added a gingerbread spice mix but if you don’t like it, you can add cinnamon, ginger powder, or even better, a pinch of pepper.
Let your creativity flow and you’ll be rewarded with a delicious, warming, soothing, and nourishing drink.
MEET THE INGREDIENTS

TURMERIC – A POWERFUL IMMUNITY BOOSTER
Turmeric is an amazing spice that will add unique flavor to all your dishes, be it sweet or savory. It contains curcumin, a substance with powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
It is available in several forms: fresh root, turmeric powder, and turmeric supplements. The fresh root is brighter, more aromatic, and a bit less bitter than the powdered form. When using fresh turmeric in place of turmeric powder, you should use three times as much of it.
HOW TO BOOST CURCUMIN ABSORPTION
In order to get the maximum health benefits out of turmeric, add a touch of black pepper to the mix. Black pepper contains a compound called piperine, which when combined with turmeric, increases the absorption of curcumin by up to 2000%.
Another way to increase its absorption is to consume turmeric with a healthy source of fat such as avocado, nut butter, olive oil, or nuts.
