The turmeric latte—aka the golden latte—is the newest wellness craze at the moment. The under-appreciated superfood of turmeric has an endless amount of benefits. It’s great for skin, improves digestion, and, thanks to a crazy amount of antioxidants has anti-inflammatory properties and boosts your immune system, all of which is why this drink is getting so much attention. So move over coffee and matcha—the warm, soothing, honeyed golden latte is here to stay, perfect if you ever need a calming, healthier beverage in the afternoon. Here are some of the best places to get one.
