    This Vegan Iced Turmeric Latte (aka Golden Milk Latte) features dairy-free milk, ice, maple syrup, turmeric powder, cinnamon, ginger powder, black pepper (to activate the turmeric), and vanilla extract! That's it!

    It's the perfect iced beverage to make for guests on a hot summer day to cool down or when you're craving a non-caffeinated drink that won't keep you up at night (that's why I developed this recipe).

    You'll often find this chilled beverage served at select cafés but they charge up to $7 for one. Now you can save yourself some money!

    The best part is that it's super easy to make with simple ingredients.

    Ingredients & Substitutes

    Please scroll down to below recipe card for exact measurements. 

    • Oat milk: or sub with a nut milk or soy milk of your choice. If you're not vegan, feel free to use dairy milk.
    • Ice cubes
    • Maple syrup: or substitute with any liquid sweetener you enjoy like stevia
    • Ground turmeric
    • Ground cinnamon
    • Ground ginger
    • Pinch of black pepper to activate the turmeric powder for health benefits. Don't worry you won't taste it.
    • Vanilla extract

    Expert Tips

    • Use a large glass like a mason jar to make this beverage.
    • Make the turmeric liquid in a measuring cup with a lip so it can easily pour into your serving glass.
    • Use a whisk to evenly distribute the turmeric liquid.
    • Enjoy this latte with a type of milk you enjoy! If you don't enjoy oat milk, I share substitutes above.
    • Don't forget the black pepper as it helps activate the turmeric for its health benefits!
    • Enjoy this fresh as the ice will eventually dilute the latte.

    Instructions

    Below are step-by-step instructions on how to make this Vegan Iced Turmeric Latte:

    Add ice cubes and 1 cup of the oat milk into your serving glass. Set aside.

    • Leftover turmeric latte will last up to 4 days stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
    • Freezer-friendly? You may freeze it in a freezer-friendly bag and it'll last up to 3 months in the freezer. To enjoy, thaw it out in the fridge overnight and enjoy cold.

    Pairing Suggestions

    This golden milk latte is best enjoyed on its own but you can enjoy it with other dishes like:

    • cookies, cakes, pastries, ice cream or other desserts
    • energy balls, oatmeal, cereal or muesli
    • fresh fruit
    • toast with jam or nut butter sandwiches

    FAQ

    Can I make this in advance?

    Yes you can make this vegan turmeric latte in advance and store it in an airtight container or jar for up to 4 days in the fridge.

    Can I make this iced turmeric latte hot?

    Yes, you can do so by omitting the ice and warming up the oat milk by simmering the milk on medium heat in a small pot before adding with the other ingredients.

    Can I turn this latte into frozen milk popsicles?

    Yes! Just omit the ice cubes and pour the latte liquid into a popsicle tray and freeze it overnight.

      I just tried this for the first time! I made it warm, in the microwave for 1.5 minute and it's so comforting in the cold weather of October New England! I'll make it again for sure, and I can't wait to try the iced version.

        If you want to make a warm turmeric latte, you should firstly take approx 1 tsp of turmeric and make a paste with hot water( this will dissolve the turmeric much better). Place milk into the bowl/cup with the paste and stir. Heat all together, (optionally adding sweetener such as honey etc) preferably on a coffee machine or pot, but a microwave will work as well. Heating turmeric with the milk will eliminate unwanted texture, improve flavour and make a yummier drink!! Pour in mug and ENJOY!!

      I tried this recipe today and it was SO GOOD! I didn’t have maple syrup, so I swapped it for agave. I’m also really caffeine sensitive so this was perfect!

      I made this today with soy milk. It was amazing! Didn’t have any cinnamon left (I know it’s unthinkable) so I used pumpkin pie spice. Same effect.For someone who is caffeine sensitive, this is my new fave. Thanks so much!
