Turmerlicious – a new range of instant Turmeric Lattes

a delicious, soothing hot drink that is packed with your optimum daily amount of the super food turmeric

Turmeric Lattes are being heralded as one of the trendiest, as well as healthiest drinks for 2017. From Artisan coffee shops to sports clubs, this healthy alternative to coffee is fast becoming a hot favourite.

However, making your own is not only time consuming but can leave your fingers and kitchen counter a lovely shade of yellow! So the mother of 5 and business owner Maggie Howell has launched Turmerlicious - a new range of instant turmeric lattes which come in convenient single serving sachets for when you are on the go or larger packs of 10 servings for your kitchen counter.

Turmerlicious is made from a blend of coconut milk, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, a hint of black pepper to aid with the absorption of turmeric and coconut blossom nectar to a touch of sweetness. To accommodate the taste buds of her own 5 sons, she has created four different natural flavours – Vanilla, Ginger, Choco, and for the not so faint hearted, chilli choc.

Turmerliciousalso ticks many of the free from boxes as it is dairy free, gluten free, nut free and the non-choco versions are also caffeine free. To maximise the health benefits of the drink each serving contains approx. 1.5g whole food Turmeric powder.

The real beauty of Turmerlicious is it so simple and easy to make - Just add 3 heaped teaspoons to a mug, pour in boiling water, stir well and enjoy!


What makes Turmerlicious different from other turmeric products?

There are over 6000 peer review citations on the benefits of Turmeric, however, it is not easily absorbed into the body. Turmeric is fat soluble so it has to be consumed with fat for it to be absorbed into the gut (hence many supplements just pass straight through you). In addition, research has shown that Turmeric also needs to be buddied up with pepper for it to be fully absorbed (research has shown it increases absorption by 2000%). Finally, heat makes the turmeric more solubleand so more easily absorbed into the body

Unlike many other turmeric based products, Turmerlicious is made from the whole turmeric root, contains black pepper and coconut milk (65% fat). As soon as you add the hot water you have the optimum combination to maximise absorption into the body.

So with Turmerlicious, you can consume the recommended daily amount in a delicious way that maximises the absorption and hence increases any health benefits that turmeric may bring.
