Makin’ a fashion statement, today! First, aren’t these lattes beautiful! Second, I’ve lost 4 lbs (in 12 days) drinking this soothing concoction. Ok, and cutting back on the food & wine intake. Third, it’s widely documented that “golden milk” aids in digestion & breaking down fat, AND assists in stopping the spread of cancer (and I’ll take all the help I can take in that area). So, there ya have it ~ beauty & health! Who woulda thunk it! Recipe & photo styling inspiration from Two Spoons Blog www.twospoons.ca ~ I made several tweaks to the recipe to suit my taste.
