At Poosh, we love a good matcha latte—goes without saying! But of course, there are times when we want a warming beverage without the caffeine.
Enter: the turmeric latte (aka golden milk).
Lots of new moms opt for this type of latte when breastfeeding. This drink is also known to work wonders at bedtime. Turmeric lattes can reduce inflammation and soothe the nervous system, making it a nighttime ritual many use to relax and improve sleep quality.
Whether you are team matcha or team turmeric, we’ve got both recipes below for you to try. Now go enjoy some you time!
