This vanilla turmeric latte is slightly sweet and spicy, almost resembling a chai latte. The turmeric not only gives us that beautiful orange hue, but it also has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. If you’re not coffee drinker, simply omit the coffee! You can drink it hot or serve it over ice.
