Are your mornings feeling a bit lackluster lately? Same old routine, same old flavors? It’s time to shake things up and infuse your mornings (plus afternoons and evenings!) with a burst of excitement and wellness. The secret ingredient? Turmeric. This golden spice isn’t just for curry. With a homemade turmeric latte, you can tantalize your taste buds while reaping the potential health benefits.

You can, of course, make turmeric latte from scratch if you’d like to do that. If convenience is a main selling point, however, a turmeric latte mix may be more to your liking. One product I love is Turmeric Latte Mix from Nature’s Harvest. In fact, it’s become one of my very favorite beverages and I’d love to tell you all about it.

Benefits of Turmeric: More than Just a Spice

What’s the big fuss over turmeric, you ask? This vibrant orange spice, originating 4,000 years ago from Southeast Asia, has long been used to season foods. You may have noticed turmeric’s distinct presence in stews, sauces, and rice dishes. The spice also has religious significance in the Hindu religion.

While research on turmeric’s health benefits is ongoing, medical experts posit that those with inflammation and conditions like arthritis, joint issues, and anxiety may benefit from adding turmeric to their foods. This can be attributed to curcumin, the compound contained within turmeric that has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It is, of course, always a good idea to check with your medical provider first, especially if you’re already taking medications.

About Nature’s Harvest Turmeric Latte Mix

About Nature’s Harvest

Nature’s Harvest is a small, Australian-based business founded in 1981. The company also manufactures Matcha Magic Mix and Shroom Magic Mix.

About the Nature’s Harvest Turmeric Latte Mix

Their Turmeric Latte Mix comes in a 125 serving, 8.82-ounce jar, as well as a 2.47 ounce resealable packet that contains 35 servings. It’s certified USDA Organic, gluten free, non-GMO, vegan, and is caffeine-free. Each serving contains 5 calories, not including the beverage or food you add the mix to.

What’s in the Nature’s Harvest Turmeric Latte Mix?

It contains just seven basic spices. There are no added sugar or other additives. Simple and clean!

• Organic turmeric (contains 5% curcumin)
• Organic Ceylon cinnamon
• Organic Ginger
• Whole Ground Vanilla
• Organic Cardamom
• Organic Chili
• Organic Black Pepper

The addition of black pepper does more than contribute to the latte’s unique taste. Curcumin doesn’t absorb easily in the body. Adding pepper may increase its absorption by 2,000%.

 

What does the Nature’s Harvest Turmeric Latte Taste Like?

Unlike say, coffee, tea, or soda, the Nature’s Harvest Turmeric Latte has contrasting notes. The robust taste of turmeric and pepper gives the drink a kicky note, while the other spices (especially the vanilla, cardamom, and cinnamon) provide a more soothing side.

It’s one of the best beverages I’ve ever tasted. That said, it has a unique taste that for some, may take time to get used to. This is not a drink for those who dislike the taste of hot pepper.

How to Make a Turmeric Latte With the Nature’s Harvest Mix

Just take a one-quarter to one-half teaspoon of the Turmeric Latte Mix and mix it into a hot or cold beverage. Some beverages you can add the mix to are:

• Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• Your favorite juice
• Iced tea
• Coffee
• Smoothies
• Plain hot water

It can also be added to foods. Some examples include popcorn, oatmeal or another type of cereal, rice, or nuts. If you enjoy cooking or baking, you can combine it in some of your favorite recipes. Nature’s Harvest’s site has recipes for dishes like Turmeric Vanilla Fudge and flourless Turmeric Spiced Banana Bread.

The way you prepare or use your turmeric latte mix is going to come down to preference. I’ve added the mix to coffee and don’t care for the taste. My favorite way to enjoy it is to combine it with milk. To prepare it, I simply microwave the liquid for a few minutes then add the mix and stir. It doesn’t get any simpler than this.
