Turmeric Almond Milk Chai (Tea)
Turmeric focused teas and juices have been popping up all over this year and I am here for it! In a south asian household turmeric is powder gold and has a place in almost everything; it’s something your parents often tell you to eat more, put on your face and add to your hair mask. My favorite quality of good turmeric was always the slight bitter quality it has, which is closest to that of ginger. This chai (tea) is very balanced and one of my favorite ways to starts the morning, I hope you enjoy it!
