September means perfect 70-something degree weather, cooler nights, witnessing nature beginning its shift into a new season, constantly being impressed by the intricately woven spider webs on the trees, sunflowers, and harvesting the abundance of food the garden has grown this summer... like beets!
I’ve been making all kinds of things with beets, since where I am there are lots to be harvested. One of my favorites being this grounding, bright pink beet latte. A warm drink with slightly sweet earthy tones, ginger, cinnamon, and a hint of vanilla.
Wanna make it?
