"Cashew milk is thicker, so when you’re doing a latte, it makes a more substantial hot beverage," Bondaroff explains. "It’s also such an easy thing to make, and you can’t even compare it to store bought, flavor-wise."

While a Golden Milk Latte doesn't require a shot of espresso, and makes a great option for those looking to kick coffee, you could absolutely add one for a healthier, next-level latte.

Watch the video—and scroll down for the full (super easy) turmeric Golden Milk Latte recipe.
