Hi Janine, love turmeric in a latte, and this is fascinating, a way to use it in a smoothie. Thanks for sharing. Dee xx.
Hello Dee, thank you really much. Also for tagging me in your post! xoxo Janine
Thank you! Turmeric is definitely my favorite spice!! xoxo Janine
I am just curious, I use turmeric in golden milk and a few other recipes and it always tells me to add some pepper because you need the pepper for your body to absorb the turmeric. Is it not necessary?
Hi Donna, you are totally right. It is good to add pepper as well. Thank you for sharing. xoxo Janine
