Turmeric Lattes Are Replacing PSLs, But Without All The Extra Calories
Pumpkin Spice Latte season is back in full swing.
It's only a matter of time before our Instagram feeds are overtaken with an endless array of orange-tinted coffee concoctions.
While there's no denying these things basically taste like fall in a cup, it turns out your beloved PSL might not be all that great for your waistline.
Yep, I hate to break it to you, but downing a seemingly innocent Grande PSL from Starbucks will set you back by about 380 calories per cup.
If that's not enough to send shivers down your spine, there's also a whopping 50 grams of sugar floating around in your beloved fall beverage. Yikes.
But don't worry, you don't have to swear off lattes just yet. There's a new spiced latte on the rise that won't turn your tummy into the shape of a pumpkin.
Behold, turmeric lattes.
That's right, turmeric lattes — also known as "Golden Milk" — are making quite a name for themselves in the coffee shop scene, thanks to their wide range of health benefits.
In fact, according to data from Pinterest, turmeric lattes are actually becoming more popular than the almighty Pumpkin Spice Latte these days.
If you're wondering what's in these striking sips, it's quite simple. They're made with a mixture of cold-pressed turmeric juice or turmeric powder and some sort of vegan milk like almond, cashew or coconut.
