Vegan nog? Is that even possible? Yes it is! I am more of an “eggnog” drinker now than I was before I went vegan. The flavor, smell, and thickness of this drink I enjoy so much around this time of year. Adding Karviva’s Cafe’ Turmerific Drink to this holiday nog gives this drink a boost. 

It’s the holiday season and being busy is something I am sure everyone can relate to. With the madness going on, Karviva’s Cafe’ Turmerific Drink gives me the energy I need. Unlike sugared filled energy drinks, I feel a calm stable alertness all day when I drink this; no crashes. Karviva’s Cafe’ Turmerific Drink is made with Fair Trade Organic Coffee Beans and as always they add no sugar to their products so you are truly getting a natural healthy holistic drink. Plus it has the added benefit of turmeric. Turmeric is such a healing spice I sneak this in my dishes every chance I get. Turmeric is known for helping with joint issues as well as inflammation.  Other nutritional properties of this drink includes:

  • Black Soybeans: Rich in protein, complex carbohydrates and low in fat. Because of it’s black color, it’s an indicator that it contains a high amount of antioxidants
  • Chinese Dates: High in minerals and vitamins, Chinese dates are also a great source of fiber so they aid in having a healthy digestive system.

The steps are simple. Just combine all your ingredients in a high speed blender and blend it till smooth. Make it the night before so the flavors can combined.

Curve building cashews are a must for this recipe. It gives it a thicker and creamer texture. Cashews have about 4 grams of protein per serving but it’s real curve building magic lies in it’s healthy fat content. It is what I like to call a “fat full” (instead of fat free) food. A calorie dense food with about 170 calories per 1/4 of a cup.

Now traditional eggnog usually has Rum in it. I personally choose to have a virgin style vegan nog but if you desire it feel free to add it to this recipe. This vegan nog is also good warm. Because it has caffeine in it I recommend starting your day with this delicious drink.

You don’t have to miss out on your favorite drinks just because you have chosen to adapt a vegan lifestyle. Let this drink give you a boost this holiday season. Enjoy!

COFFEE TURMERIC VEGAN “EGG” NOG

Thick, creamy vegan nog!

  • 1 bottle of Karviva’s Cafe’ Turmerific Drink
  • 1/4 cup of soaked raw cashews
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 1 can of coconut cream (5.4 oz)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 1 to 2 packets of stevia (start with one full packet of stevia and if isn’t sweet enough to your liking add a second packet)
  1. Soak the cashews for 2 to 4 hours. If you are short on time you can always boil cashews for 5 minutes to soften.
  2. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
  3. Serve immediately or chilled in fridge for a couple hours
  4. I prefer to this drink warm. If you are like me heat over stove for a couple of minutes.
  5. Happy Holidays and enjoy!

NotesIf you don’t have access to Karviva’s Cafe’ Turmerific Drink , you can use your favorite coffee drink or full fat coconut milk.

The longer it sits the thicker it gets and the better the flavors infuse. I recommend making it the night before and then serving it as your morning drink chilled or heated

If you do not like the taste of stevia you can add 3 tablespoons of your favorite natural sweetener. With the added liquid sweetener the nutrition content per serving will be as follows:
