Ingredients
  

1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)

2 cups milk (your choice of dairy or non-dairy such as almond, oat, or coconut)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your preferred sweetness level)

1 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of black pepper (to boost turmeric absorption)

Whipped cream or coconut whipped cream (optional for topping)

Additional pumpkin spice or cinnamon for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Spice Mixture: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of black pepper until well combined. Set this aromatic blend aside for later use.

    Heat the Milk: In a medium saucepan, pour in the milk and place it over medium heat. Stir occasionally and warm the milk gently, ensuring it does not reach a boiling point, as this could lead to scorching.

      Incorporate the Pumpkin: Once the milk is warmed, add the pumpkin puree to the saucepan. Using a whisk, combine the pumpkin with the milk until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps, creating a velvety base.

        Mix in Sweetness and Flavor: To the pumpkin-milk mixture, add your choice of honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and the prepared spice mixture. Continue to whisk everything together until it's well-blended and heated through, taking care not to let it boil.

          Blend for Frothiness (Optional): If you desire a frothy latte, carefully pour the mixture into a blender and blend on low speed until smooth and slightly frothy. Alternatively, you can use a milk frother directly in the saucepan to achieve a creamy texture.

            Serve: Ladle the Golden Turmeric Pumpkin Latte into your favorite mugs. For an indulgent touch, add a dollop of whipped cream or coconut whipped cream on top. Finish with a sprinkle of pumpkin spice or cinnamon for an enticing garnish.

              Enjoy Hot or Iced: Your Golden Turmeric Pumpkin Latte can be savored hot, or if you’re feeling adventurous, pour it over ice for a refreshing iced version.
