Grocery store and “holistic lifestyle hub” About Life have opened their first store outside of Sydney in Port Melbourne. As well as selling a range of locally, ethically and sustainably sourced produce and products, the store also features a cafe, juice station, and an in-store wellness expert. Sisters and founders Jodie Stewart and Tammie Phillips want to “eliminate the nasties – artificial preservatives, flavours, sweeteners, colours and more – found in conventional supermarkets and instead replace these with natural, ethical groceries that won’t break the bank or leave a large footprint.”
To celebrate the opening of the Port Melbourne store, Jodie and Tammie have shared with us this for a ginger turmeric latte recipe. Tasty and easy to make, the ginger and turmeric work together to help fight gastro-intestinal problems, inflammatory conditions, nausea, cold and other respiratory conditions.
Preparation Time: 3 minutes / Steeping Time: 3 minutes / Serves 1
Ingredients
- ¼ tsp (1.25g) turmeric powder
- 1 small knob ginger, grated
