About the recipe

I have already made weight loss coffee using black coffee, but today I am combining two powerful ingredients into one recipe drink, which can be useful to treat many issues such as weight loss, boosting energy levels, improving heart-related issues, and many more.

There are lots of benefits of turmeric, as we all know. Coffee alone can get boring to consume and not always beneficial.

Therefore, using turmeric with coffee is a great combination and is also beneficial in many ways.

Below, I will highlight different ways in which turmeric and coffee separately can benefit humans, and making a latte can improve overall health, as they have the power to cure many ailments.

I am using some of the ingredients that can improve health issues, such as cold, cough, weight gain issues, as I am making this drink using turmeric, ginger powder, cinnamon, coconut milk, black pepper powder, and brewed coffee.

To enhance the taste, I will also be adding some honey as plain coffee with turmeric is not easy to consume.

Turmeric and benefits

Turmeric is a golden spice, a common spice used in Indian kitchens and for medicinal purposes.

It has amazing medicinal properties, such as the power to treat cold, cough, has anti-inflammatory properties as well as can improve heart health, is used for weight loss issues, and is added to a weight loss diet.

Turmeric is used quite a lot in Indian cuisine, where most of the recipes are incomplete without this spice, as it adds colour as well as being good for health.

Use this spice to heal wounds, to weight loss drinks, curries, and many other usages.

Today, I would like to show a variation to make a different coffee and make it in a simple manner that can protect us from health problems.

Recipe benefits

  • A combination of turmeric and coffee has anti-inflammatory properties and can prevent inflammation and suffering from arthritis and joint pain.
  • They both can work on reducing stress and anxiety.
  • Coffee is an energy booster and, combined with turmeric, can lift energy levels.
  • They can also reduce weight as both have cholesterol-reducing properties, which can help in improving cholesterol levels as well as weight-related issues.
  • It can also help in treating lung-related issues and infections.
  • They can both act as anti-oxidants in the body as well help in the prevention of cancer too.

When to drink?

This is not a drink to use only on an empty stomach. Use it at any time of the day and refresh one's mood and energy after a long day of a hectic work schedule.

Just add a hint of turmeric to coffee, and no need to add many ingredients if in a rush. Never add turmeric in large quantities, and do not let it dominate the coffee flavours. Always keep the flavours balanced so that it is easy to drink.

Drink it in the mornings or during evenings just to refresh oneself and enjoy its benefits in the long run. Just have it once a week or twice a week to enjoy its benefits.

Ingredients

Turmeric: This is a golden spice used here in coffee and is commonly known as Haldi in Indian languages.

This spice has immense benefits, and adding it to the recipe has lots of advantages, and so does this coffee.

I have also shared a similar kind of recipe that is turmeric milk or haldi doodh, which also treats cold and cough, and does can a look for more details of the turmeric-related recipe.

Also added turmeric tea recipe for weight loss, which again is a weight loss tea and has different benefits too.

Coffee: I am using brewed coffee. One can make coffee using instant coffee powder, as I did for my black coffee, or brew it using coffee beans in a machine or by steeping it overnight in water.

Make the coffee instantly, or make it the night before and store.

Cinnamon: This is entirely optional, but to make the coffee healthy and also to use it for warming purposes, as well as for fat-burning purposes, add as required. It also adds a different, unique flavour to the coffee.

Ginger powder: This helps in keeping the body warm, helps to treat lung issues, helps to treat cold and cough, throat-related issues, and using it in this recipe can bring all these benefits as well can act as a fat burner.

Coconut milk: Adding coconut milk or almond milk, or normal low-fat milk are all great options. I am using healthy milk that can combine with turmeric to add good flavours and be healthy too.

Other common ingredients

Black pepper powder: This ingredient gives warmth to the body and is always a good choice to add if making this recipe during monsoons or winters.

Honey: Last but not least, adding honey as a sweetener makes it easy to drink. It not only works as a sweetening agent but also covers most of the benefits similar to this coffee.

Variations

A quick way of making another form of this recipe is to boil almond milk or low-fat milk and add all the above ingredients, boil them for a few minutes, and serve by adding honey.

To add more flavours, other enhancing ingredients such as vanilla extract can be added. Vanilla combined with coffee is a commonly used combination, as both in combination give good flavours to the coffee.

Low-fat milk in place of other milk gives good results. Just use as per preference and add a little bit of turmeric to the coffee made to reap its benefits.

Step-by-step procedure

  • Take a blending jar and add a cup of brewed coffee (instant coffee boiled in water or brewed from a machine, or any kind of brewed coffee).

    I started drinking espresso when i was in a Mexico high end resort. The barrista introduced this special drink, it was delicious. Trying to find the recipe , but didn't.
    It is a wonderful drink even if the wearher was so hot.
    I lost contact with the barista, and this one is the closest recipe I found,
    Try it.
    You will love it
