My spice obsession has officially made its way into my coffee… ☕️🍫

I usually have my coffee black, but at this time of year I love a comforting drink. This chocolate and turmeric latte really hits the spot!

It tastes like something from a fancy café, but with less sugar and a few beneficial plant compounds too.

– Dark chocolate and cacao contain flavanols, studied for their effects on blood flow and brain function. I use chocolate with over 85% cacao.
– Turmeric gets its golden colour from curcuminoids with anti-inflammatory properties.
– Coffee adds polyphenols too, even when it’s decaf, which is what I use here.
