A small pinch of freshly ground black pepper

Extra cinnamon for sprinkling (optional)
Method
-
Prepare two shots of espresso.

Pour the espresso into your favourite mug or glass, then slowly add the golden turmeric milk.

Recipe Notes
-
Use barista-style oat milk for a richer, creamier texture and better froth.
-
Adjust the amount of turmeric to suit your taste. Start with ¼ tsp if you prefer a milder flavour.
-
Whisk the spices thoroughly to prevent clumps and create a smoother latte.
-
Adjust the vanilla syrup depending on how sweet you like your coffee.
Why Add Black Pepper to Turmeric?
Turmeric contains curcumin, a natural compound with relatively low bioavailability. Black pepper contains piperine, which has been studied for its potential to improve curcumin absorption. A pinch of black pepper also adds a gentle warmth that complements turmeric’s earthy flavour.
Make It Your Own
-
Make it iced: Allow the espresso and spiced milk to cool, then pour over ice for a refreshing iced turmeric coffee.
-
Add ginger: Stir in a pinch of Everyday Superfood Organic Ginger Powder for an extra warming, spicy kick.
-
Try different milk: Swap oat milk for almond, coconut or your favourite dairy milk.
-
Adjust the coffee: Use a single espresso shot for a milder flavour, or decaffeinated espresso for a caffeine-free alternative.
-
Add a finishing touch: Sprinkle with cinnamon or add a little extra vanilla syrup for a sweeter finish.
