The 'Wonderfall' menu that's been unveiled for Pret A Manger's fall season include comforting additions like the Fall Harvest Salad, a Spiced Pumpkin Muffin and an Almond Turmeric Latte.
The all-new beverage is described as being "warm and earthy," blend of organic almond milk, turmeric and spices that may be served either hot or iced. In terms of taste, the drink is described as partly sweet, salty and spicy. As an ingredient in food and beverages, turmeric is revered for its incredible anti-inflammatory properties, as well as well as its ability to increase the antioxidant capacity of the body, among many other benefits.
Lattes made with turmeric can now also be found on the menus at Starbucks and Le Pain Quotidien, representing a consumer interest in health-focused beverages powered by potent superfood ingredients.
