Brighten up your day with a golden milk latte!

What's in it:

2 tablespoons of JOI plant base (oat, almond, cashew or creamer)
1 cup of water
1/2 teaspoon of ground turmeric or 1/2 inch of fresh turmeric, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon of maple syrup or sweetener of choice
1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger, or 1 inch piece of fresh ginger, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1 pinch of ground pepper (optional)
1 pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)

Here's how to make it:

Blend JOI plant base with water.
Heat JOI milk in a saucepan on low or in a spin frother.
While the milk is heating, add all the other ingredients into a mug, then pour in warm milk.
Allow to steep for 2 minutes (or longer if using fresh ginger or turmeric)
Stir, strain and enJOI.

Optional - skip the warm milk part and serve over ice!
