The ingredients in this recipe are second to none in terms of healthy, nutritious properties. A delicious warming drink and far healthier than standard lattes from cafes and restaurants.
Ginger is a known agent for relieving digestive problems, particularly if using the root powder, and similarly, using turmeric root powder you will absorb the natural inflammatory properties contained therein.
Almond milk is a healthier option to use rather than cows or goats milk, as well as it being suitable for vegetarians. Coconut sugar is a pleasing and more beneficial substitute for normal refined sugar.
