It’s summer. Doesn’t it feel like it there? We skipped over spring entirely here. One day, while we were still in Europe last month, I checked the weather back home: 35º. When we arrived back in the States, it was 85 and humid as the jungle. What… I… How did that happen?! Who allowed that?!
Regardless of whether your transition to summer is more of a gradual warming of the breeze or a sudden, full-stop, perma-sweat onset, it’s time for cooler drinks, icy treats, refreshing recipes. I shared my iced golden milk turmeric latte recently – perfect for warmer afternoons – and they’ve been such a hit since. And I get it! I absolutely love the flavors and benefits of a golden milk turmeric latte but sipping a mug of the creamy, warm yellow tonic just sort of loses its appeal around, oh, 93º and 100% humidity. That’s why the iced golden milk turmeric latte made so much sense: all the gorgeous spices and their nourishing properties but none of the sticky heat. Just iced, cool, refreshing. So what’s the only thing that could make this recipe better?
Turning it into a slushie. Enter the frozen golden milk turmeric frappuccino. This frozen golden milk turmeric frappuccino is just as easy as my iced golden milk turmeric latte but way more fun. It’s spicy and creamy and sweet but perfectly balanced – not too much of anything – and the frothy ice is just summer perfection. My favorite way to enjoy this frozen golden milk turmeric frappuccino is from inside my screened-in porch, watching my child run around asking me if I’m seeing him blow all the bubbles and climb all the slides and fight all the bugs. Yes, dear! I see you, love! Oh do I see you! And it’s totally self-care, too, knowing I’m enjoying myself, taking a moment to chill, and nourishing my body at the same time.
See? I just justified a once daily habit for you, girl. Do it! You’ll love this frozen golden milk turmeric frappuccino because it’s nourishing but refreshing, sweet but balanced, spiced but not too spicy. It’s stunning and icy and perfect. If you like this frozen golden milk turmeric frappuccino recipe, you’ll definitely like my iced golden milk turmeric latte recipe, too!
