Cold Busting Orange Turmeric Tea Latte Vegan

As I sit here coveting a cup of turmeric tea latte (in conjunction to typing this post), it’s 65F outside. Mind you just 2 days ago I was shoveling a blanket (or 3) of snow from my drive away after. Can I confess something? I don’t mind it. In fact, this Texas girl thinks it’s so pretty! It brightens up living room but at the same makes me feel cozy. Ya, I know, I’m that weirdo who’s never seen so much powdery snow. Until we moved to Utah a year ago!

What I don’t like is that the ups and down of the temperature all also brought an up and down of seasonal allergies, brain fog, and a wee little cold in APRIL! Bah-humbug! My poor husband got a double dose of a migraine as well. It came then went then came again.

Thankfully I think we beat it for good this time! I’d like to credit my amazing bulletproof turmeric tea latte skills to that. Okay I may be exaggerating, but still. Do you even know how magical this golden milk latte is? SUPER HEALING POWERS!

It all begins with a double dose of turmeric, healthy fats from the brain octane oil (MCT oil included), and vitamin C rich foods.
