Dammann Frères Advent 2021 – Day 5
Yes, both of my advents thought I should be reminded of warmer regions of the world today. Thank you universe.
DF writes “for amateurs, a delicious drink prepared as a latte.” I’m no spring chicken to turmeric but you can bet I “simmered” this tea bag in oat milk before finally adding honey (maple syrup is also an excellent sweetener with this spice combo). It was delicious and warming, even though I over-simmered my oats. I’m also glad that, out of Dammann Frères three turmeric herbals, it’s the gingery one they included.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Earth, Ginger, Spices, Spicy, Sweet, Wood

I’m most definitely a newbie when it comes to turmeric Curcuma tea and I chickened out on this one. My daughter opened hers, wrinkled her nose and handed it to me in total disgust, lol. I kindly (read cowardly) passed it on to my husband (sans wrinkled nose mind you) since he’ll eat and drink anything and I haven’t heard yet what he thought of it. But you make it sound good! I will look up “simmering” in oat milk and try to follow in your footsteps on this one.
Check out turmeric latte recipes! This is a teabag version of one of those – just add your milk choice and sweetener and you’re good to go (maple and honey are best, to your tastes). If you like or don’t mind masala chai (especially ginger-forward ones) this will fit right in, despite the fact that turmeric looks and smells like a lot. It’s profile is vaguely earthy spice; it is part of the same family as ginger.
Just fair warning though – turmeric loves to stain things.
