Golden Milk Latte

5 from 1 review

This Golden Milk Latte is a true latte. Milk, cinnamon, Chinese five spice, and turmeric are added to a shot of espresso (don’t worry I have a coffee version too for those who don’t have an espresso machine) and some maple syrup for sweetness. The flavors are warm and cozy. Drink it hot or iced. It’s a simple recipe that’s quick and easy to make, ready in ten minutes, and only needs six ingredients!

Notes

  • Be sure to blend the ingredients very well. You will have a few grains of the spices in the bottom of the cup, you can always have a spoon in the cup to stir as you drink. If you’re not a fan, you can strain with a fine mesh strainer before drinking to eliminate more spice remnants.
