Turmeric Coffee (Curcumin Coffee) is a healthy and delicious coffee drink where turmeric powder and a few other spices are added to the cup of your favorite coffee.
The turmeric mix has a nice spicy kick and comes together quickly. It gives the coffee a warm and earthy flavor, which is great to sip.
Although you can drink a cup of turmeric coffee all year round, it is particularly good during winter. It warms the body and prevents colds, coughs, and flu.
This turmeric coffee powder can be added to any of your favorite coffees. Be it a Latte, Espresso, Cappuccino, or even a simple brewed coffee made using Instant coffee powder, it works great in all of them.
