Ingredients
- 250 mls / 1 cup homemade or unsweetened almond milk
- 1-2 tsp coconut sugar / honey / other sweetener
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger / small piece of fresh ginger grated

Notes
Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, is fat soluble. If you're using homemade almond milk there should be enough fats present, but if you're using shop bought almond milk, add the coconut oil to increase the fat content.
