What’s in My Morning Anti-Inflammatory Latte? It’s Not Just Matcha...
Some days we wake up already tired. Not just from lack of sleep, but from the constant doing, holding, and caring—for everyone else. You need energy, yes, but more than that, you need nourishment.
And that’s exactly where herbs and intentional self-care practices come in.
This warm, grounding matcha turmeric latte is one of my favorite ways to bring in plant-based, anti-inflammatory support first thing in the morning. It gives me the sustained energy I need to show up as myself—without relying on quick fixes.
This post will walk you through the what and the why. The full recipe, step-by-step prep, and herb breakdown are inside the video.
🌿 Nourishing Your Energy System
This latte isn’t just delicious—it’s functional. The blend of matcha, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and astragalus supports your whole system, from digestion to clarity to immunity.
Together, these antioxidant-rich plants create a nourishing morning practice that works with your body, not against it.
I explain how I layer these herbs for daily support in the video.
🥛 Why I Make My Own Cashew Milk
There’s a difference between a latte that’s just “healthy-ish” and one that truly supports your body. Most store-bought milks are filled with gums and hidden sugars that don’t serve us.
This matcha latte recipe with homemade cashew milk uses just cashews, water, dates, and a pinch of salt. It’s simple, creamy, and free of additives—plus it pairs beautifully with herbs and spices to become a full-on herbal nourishment experience.

✨ My Take on Golden Milk Matcha
You may have seen golden milk matcha recipes floating around, but mine comes with a personal twist—grounded in the kind of care that’s ancestral, intentional, and daily.
I add turmeric to nourish long-term vitality, ginger and cayenne to spark warmth, and a blend of anti-inflammatory herbs to support the body’s healing process. Every sip is about alignment—meeting your energy needs with integrity.
But there’s one herb I didn’t name here that I use most often for sustained energy. I share that inside the video.
☕ Energy That Doesn’t Deplete You
This isn’t about cutting things out—it’s about choosing what supports you. With this matcha latte without whisk, you can create a daily moment of calm focus that doesn’t leave your system taxed or overstimulated.
The matcha benefits are real: L-theanine for mental clarity, gentle caffeine for focus, and herbs to balance and buffer your body.
I walk through my full process in the video, including how I layer the herbs for energy and clarity.
