With only 5.5g net carbs per serve, this keto turmeric milkshake will keep you full for hours.
It's the perfect winter warmer or summer iced cool-down. Perfect if you are dairy-free or want to cut back on cow's milk.
Are milkshakes keto?
No, milkshakes are not keto because of the high volume of dairy which has 4% carbs. This "milkshake", however, is made from dairy-free milk so the carbs in the nutrition panel are incredibly low.
Cow's milk has 4-5g per 100ml. That's up to 12.5g net carbs per (250ml) cup.
Nutritional values from cronometer.com
One serving is only 5.5g net carbohydrates so this thirst-quenching drink will keep you on track with the daily carb limits that you have set using the macro calculator.
The high-fat content of this shake will keep you full for hours and hours. The turmeric, ginger and spices give it a subtle kick and depth of flavour.
It is more nutritious than a regular sugar-laden milkshake, or that morning cup of coffee.
It is egg free, nightshade free, nut free (depending on the milk used) and vegan. You can use any dairy substitute.
Dairy-free milk to use
I chose to make mine with coconut milk, which thickens to a delicious dreamy creamy milkshake because of the addition of the ice-cubes which helps solidify the coconut oil in the coconut cream.
But you could also use any milk substitute that you can tolerate, such as almond milk.
I have also successfully made it using 50:50 coconut cream:water when I ran out of coconut milk.
You may also use almond milk but always check for added sugars. Buy the unsweetened almond milk.
You may wish to use oat milk or rice milk, however, these are higher in carbs and generally avoided on the keto diet.
This keto milkshake can be enjoyed cold or heated gently to be a warm and comforting winter drink. The keto turmeric milkshake will certainly warm you up, no matter which way you choose to serve it.
Equipment

Made with unsweetened cashew milk, and also added ground pepper blend to help absorption of the Turmeric. Wasn't sure if I liked it with the first couple sips, but about halfway through the glass, I decided it was OK. I found myself wishing it was warm instead of cold. I'm used to drinking warm turmeric tea, so am definitely going to make this again, but the warm version, and I'm sure I will love it.

According to the nutrition label... No fat, 7 grams of carbs, less than 2 grams of protein? It may be healthy, but this is NOT Keto!
Shannon Lockwood
Use coconut milk... you'll get between 35 to 45 g of fat... thats ALOT of fat! Definitely Keto!
Chris
Would love you to please give me the name/brand of coconut milk that has upto 45g of fat. Searched all over and find nothing close. If it exists I want it 😀
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com
I have never found one that is 45g fat, the coconut cream I use is 20-25% fat.
Chris
Have looked and looked for a non/dairy milk that comes anywhere close to the recipe shown. I wanted high fat content low carbs but can’t find it. In fact coconut milk is low in fat, go figure!!
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com
Coconut cream should be 20-25% fat.
Josephine cardenas
Just read this , and I am certainly going to try it. Especially to see if it calms my sweet tooth.
Sarah
Does anyone else have their coconut milk curdle with this recipe? I had no issues the first few times then had two batches curdle.... quite unpleasant.
anna
oh, I really like this recipe with the turmeric. Just pinned. -Anna

I just tried your recipe and it turned out to be delicious. Its not only delicious but yummy and healthy too.
John
The use of Canola Oil in Leanne's book is very disappointing. It has stopped me from buying it.
Ricky Shearer
This is my new first time making this drink through reading all of the wonderful comments on its taste.
Christina
This was super yummy! I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk (2g net carbs per 8 ounces) and used Stevia to sweeten. I used 1 tbsp of cold-pressed, organic hemp oil and 1tbsp of coconut oil (the solidified kind, which is the only kind I had on hand… thought it might be weird but it was fine). Even my 8 year old liked it and demanded I make him one too! Stevia sometimes tastes weird in certain recipes, but in this one it really tasted like it had sugar in it! What an excellent recipe when I get a sweet craving!
Sarah
I used the coconut milk that comes in a can. Is this wrong? It tastes amazing, but seems really high on fat, as well as carbs. The recipe calls for 375ml coconut milk, which is basically the whole can.
Shannon Lockwood
I did the same... i had the same question.
Tracey C
This is my new first time making this drink through reading all of the wonderful comments on its taste.
I used my magic bullet for mine. It really stuck to the side of the cup. Is that normal??? I had a wonderful time scraping it all off, like left over cake batter as a kid, but was just wondering it that was correct. Also, I used 4 oz of Heavy Whipping cream and 4 oz water mixed as base. This was soooooo good. Thank you for posting for the world to enjoy.
Marilyn
Made shake this am but it did not get thick. Taste was great but would like thicker. Maybe more ice cubes?
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com
Did you use coconut cream? True coconut cream os 20-25% fat so will thicken beautifully.

llc150Lora Lee Carver
Due to being on a strict low carb diet of no more than 20 grams of carbs per day,, I use part heavy whipping cream and part water instead. Nice. I love turmeric and its health benefits
Linda Zipf
I have made this for breakfast every day this week using unsweetened cashew milk and a little Virtue sweetener. I love the spices and will be having a warm cup before bed tonight. ❤️ all the Instagram posts/links and your blog!
Alika
I made mine with coconut milk,skipped the sweeteners completely and added some black pepper (to get all the goodness of the turmeric) and some grated tonka bean,which added the ultimate kick to it! It was supercreamy and delicious, I absolutely LOOOOOOVE this recipe,thanks for sharing!!! Will make this for breakfast a LOT now...
