Turmeric Maca Mocha Latte

Prep Time 2 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 17 minutes
Servings: 1 Latte

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon gelatinized maca powder* see Note
  • 2 teaspoons raw cacao powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • a sprinkle of cinnamon, paprika, flaky sea salt for garnish

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the ginger, cinnamon, maca, cacao, cayenne, turmeric, and paprika in a medium saucepan. Add 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
  2. Add the vanilla and coconut oil, and slowly whisk in the milk. Raise the temperature slightly, and allow the milk to just begin to froth.
  3. Remove from heat and pour into a large mug. Top with additional spices as desired.

Notes

*Edited 10/25/2020: I now recommend gelatinized maca powder instead of raw (per the original recipe), as raw maca can be very difficult to digest.
