It’s no secret that I’m obsessed with turmeric. Those golden spice lattes are my jam! I also to change things up every now and then and today we’re going to do just that with a golden saffron latte! There’s all sorts of research on how incredibly healing this spice is for mood and anxiousness.
A little bit of saffron goes a long way. You only need a few threads and you’re totally going to fall in love with the color! To make it you’ll need:
1 1/2 of your favorite plant based milk
10-12 threads of saffron
1 pitted medjool date
dash of ceylon cinnamon (starwest botanicals | mountain rose herbs | amazon)
splash of vanilla (starwest botanicals | amazon)
Simmer the milk over the stove with saffron threads for 7-8 minutes to infuse both the nutrients and the flavor. Remove from the heat and add to the blender along with the date and vanilla. Blend until smooth. Pour into a mug and sprinkle on a little cinnamon. Enjoy!
Enjoy a different type of latte full of flavor and warmth.
