Top on my paleo food list: golden iced turmeric lattes. Tastes like liquid sunshine! An easy refreshing paleo and whole30 beverage, perfect for summer.
Welcome to the drippy golden horizon of iced turmeric lattes- that taste like sunshine.
You know something is worth keeping around, when you’ve been making in on repeat two times a day; in your pjs, church clothes, and swim suits.
I don’t plan on stopping this golden train for awhile, so you better just hop on!
Who would ever think a handful of earthy spices + some homemade nut milk would taste like a cosmic collision of sunshine, easy like sunday morning.
For real though, I was never a big fan of turmeric…
I tried the golden latte a few years ago, but it never stuck.
A few weeks ago though, I was battling some pretty aggressive inflammation.
If you would have poked my skin, I think I might have popped like a balloon.
It was pretty intense.?
I’m not sure what caused it, but I’m still wading through the aftermath.
Waking up looking like a pregnant twin version of myself isn’t exactly ideal, but I’m making the best of it.
When you feel like a balloon, the only to-do tasks include: kicking feet up, avoiding the heat, and sipping on all the iced golden turmeric lattes and golden soup I want.
If I turn yellow, you’ll know why.
latte love
What I love about this latte:
- Caffeine free!!!
- All the flavor combinations you want, see: add chocolate syrup, lemon, or more ginger for a major mind-blowing flavor experience!
- Chilly and refreshing.
- Eaaaaasaay to make, my friends. I sometimes just make an extra large jar of this golden deliciousness and store it in the fridge for breakfast, lunch, or gardening hour. You know, out there in my birks, messy bun, with my plants, and turmeric milk. I kinda like it.
Okay, I think you are properly prepared now, to mix and match this golden. Now, go make your dream golden latte.
Oh! And feel free to add all the natural sprinkles and whipped cream/coconut cream you want. Trust me, it’s like cake.
