Turmerlicious - Turmeric Latte Choco 200g Packet - Instant Dairy Free

My order came on time and safely. The package is relatively big but it's only for 10 small cups which I didn't realise. You need 3 heaped teaspoons for a small cup of drink! It's tasty and not strong at all although I find it impossible to make it smooth however long I stir, there's always tiny lumps of ginger etc swimming in it.I was impressed by one of the commenters saying the turmeric helped them deal with a chronic illness/pain. I also purchased it for my health, though it has very little turmeric in it (7%), so not sure how effective it can be. If anyone wants to consume more turmeric I'd recommend frequently eating south asian or indian dishes which are made with lots of turmeric and other healthy herbs. They are easy to make and very delicious.To be honest it's too expensive for 10 small cups of drinks. Might be better to make the mix yourself with some cocoa or whatever flavour you prefer, real coconut milk instead of the powder and maybe some extra turmeric!

For me, it's an acquired taste if you just make it with water. So, I make it with half milk and half water or sometimes all milk. I initially thought the product seemed expensive but if you consider the cost of a latte at a high street coffee shop, this works out at less than £1 a mug. It also has a lot of health benefits and is packed with "good stuff".I'm also trying other flavours as I also recently tried the individual sample sachets. I think I'll be ordering the Vanilla and also the Ginger or Chilli Choc next. As I've recently been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, I intend to keep drinking these throughout the Autumn/Winter months. It's too early to tell if they are helping, but they taste nice and they're a welcome change from a mug of tea or regular coffee.

I wanted something different for my mid-morning break - coffee wasn't hitting the spot anymore - and a friend told me about this. It is an instant product - just add hot water, stir and top up with milk or mylk (any milk alternative) to cool down the drink. It is lovely but as 3 heaped teaspoons are needed per cup it doesn't last long; it does have quite a high sugar content (probably because it contains dried coconut milk) but it is very palatable and has become a firm part of my daily routine.

It is a good drink for giving a warm feeling whilst you know it is an anti-inflamatory.

I absolutely love this drink!! I got diagnosed with Chron's disease last year and have had to cut out all diary and gluten and have as a result been struggling to find a drink that contains no dairy, and that is also generally gentle on my stomach. I can digest this really well and the turmeric has a soothing effect on me! I've been drinking this for about three weeks now and feel like I have more energy, and my stomach symptoms have improved. I knew that turmeric was good for inflammation in the body but didn't think it would have that much of an effect!The drink tastes delicious, I tend to mix it with hot coconut milk, which is low calories and makes it really creamy. Will definitely continue to buy this - my new every day treat at work that makes me feel good physically and cheers me up! :)

Are the reviewers who gave feedback serious? Looks and tastes horrible. I guess I was taken in by the packaging, their marketing guys deserve a pat on the back. By looking at the packet my taste buds were expecting a lovely choccy drink with the goodness of turmeric heavily disguised in the background. Nope! I can’t even tell you what it taste like but it isn’t chocolate. I even added some pure cocoa and then in desperation milk but sorry not for me. I am going back to turmeric supplements which are much easier on the old taste buds.

The initial taste was weird, but by the end of a cup full I wanted more, and have now ordered 5 packets! I had read about the benefits of Turmeric but it's best as whole root with curcumin, hot, with added fat and black pepper! Too fiddly for me but this packet combines everything except the hot water in three heaped teaspoons worth. :) It's even vegan if you use coconut milk for the paste as I do before adding hot water. Just keep the spoon handy as it will separate if left too long so give it another swirl if it's sat a few mins.

Great to have a dairy free instant hot chocolate, a little expensive, however very nice.
