Description
This simple, creamy vegan beverage is caffeine-free so it works anytime of day. I love the sweet, earthy, flavor it offers and creamy texture. I serve it over ice and find it to be incredibly refreshing during the summer heat. This is a quick, easy and delicious way to incorporate more turmeric into your routine.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsweetened, plain almond milk or homemade cashew milk
- 1/4 cup raw, blanched slivered almonds (not sliced almonds)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric*
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or a pinch of vanilla bean powder
- 1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high speed blender and blend on high for 30-40 seconds to ensure it gets nice and frothy. You want to make sure you give it enough time for the slivered almonds to fully "dissolve" into the drink otherwise it will be gritty.
- Pour into a glass along with more ice cubes. You could add a sprinkle of ground turmeric on top if you want to be fancy.
Notes
You could use up to 1 teaspoon but I recommend starting with 1/2 teaspoon and working your way up if desired.
For better turmeric absorption add 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil and 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper to the blender before blending.
