Turmeric is familiar with curry spices and drinks for drinking parties. Among them, autumn turmeric used for turmeric contains a lot of curcumin, which is one of the polyphenols, and it is said that it is attracting attention as a healthy food.

Eating curry every day is a little difficult, but one of the recipes that is easy to take is "turmeric latte". It is also called "golden milk" because it becomes golden with turmeric pigment, and the number of items that can be enjoyed just by dissolving it in milk is increasing. This time I tried two products I found at KALDI Coffee Farm and Natural Lawson.


■ Suitable for beginners! KALDI latte mix


"Turmeric Latte Mix" from KALDI Coffee Farm is a powdered mix of turmeric with cinnamon, ginger, pepper and sugar added. Dissolve in hot or iced milk. The gentle sweetness of sugar and the strong scent of cinnamon make it easy to drink with a feeling close to chai!



■ Latte base with squeezed autumn turmeric from Okinawa


On the other hand, at Natural Lawson, I found "Turmeric Latte Base", which is made by squeezing autumn turmeric from Okinawa prefecture with a cold press. The liquid in which turmeric is condensed tightly has a ginger-like scent, and if you put it in your mouth as it is, it will be extremely bitter, so be careful.


By dividing it with milk, the bitterness and aroma will be weakened, and if ginger is okay, you can drink it without any resistance. If you like, add honey to make it easier to drink.


■ It's delicious other than milk ♪


In addition to milk, it is also recommended to divide both with soy milk or almond milk. Almond milk, in particular, has a natural sweetness that makes it much easier to drink without the addition of sugar. It's fun to sprinkle cinnamon or add honey to find your favorite arrangement.


In addition, if turmeric is overdose beyond the usual diet, liver function may be burdened, and intake during pregnancy and lactation is NG. To make the right amount a habit, why not try it with a latte first?
