Turmeric was one of the first wellness ingredients I added to my diet when I became vegan. Often called the ‘Sunshine’ Latte, this health drink does everything from help fight bloating to lifting your mood. The active ingredient curcumin is what gives turmeric its super food powers!

I make this weekly to maintain my healthy glow, strong immune system, and clear, balanced mind. Not to mention it’s crazy delicious! So if you’re feeling a little under the weather or looking to optimise your health in an easy, quick way, I highly recommend this.

In my recipe – you don’t need milk, just raw sunflower seeds + hot water. This makes it fresh and even tastier! But don’t fret, you can use pre-made milk if you want (notes below). Don’t forget, the SECRET to activating turmeric is adding a dash of black pepper. It’s been shown that adding black pepper increases the bio-availability (body’s ability to absorb curcumin) by 2000% (YES 2000%!!)

Ingredients*:
1 TBSP Sunflower seeds
1 TSP Turmeric Powder
Pinch of black pepper
1 TSP Cold Pressed Coconut Oil
1 Cup Hot water**
Honey (to taste)

*All ingredients are , GMO-free for maximum health benefits
**If you don’t have seeds, just add 1 cup of heated plant milk (almond, coconut, cashew etc)

Instructions:
Add all ingredients together in a high-speed blender and blend on high for 3-5 minutes (the longer you blend, the foamier it will be)

To Garnish:
I used edible rose buds & Maca Powder (super caramel-y flavor!)
