Bulletproof turmeric latte is a healthy, nutritious drink that will boost your energy right at the start of the day. It is packed with antioxidants, calcium, and healthy fats. Drink it as a meal replacement and boost your metabolism to lose weight fast. If you have ever tried keto, you must know about bulletproof keto drinks. Most often, coffee is used for making a bulletproof refreshing drink that contains added calories from healthy fats. But this turmeric latte is healthier. That is why when you drink it, you don’t need your breakfast or evening snack. We have made this turmeric latte a keto bulletproof latte by adding some turmeric and spices to non-dairy milk. You can use either coconut milk or almond milk, depending on your flavor preferences. Instead of heavy whipping cream, we have topped the latte with coconut cream after aerating it in a Galaxy Gas Whipped Cream Dispenser. You can also add a pinch of ginger powder to boost the health benefits of this drink. To flavor the drink, we added vanilla extract. We selected maple syrup due to its natural taste and nutritional properties. However, you can replace it with any non-nutritive sweetener if you are on a strict keto. A pinch of black pepper is added because it helps the body absorb curcumin without adding spice to the latte.
