trying a golden latte

January 20, 2017

For Friday field trip today, I am taking you for a quick cup of latte and some toast.

This is served up in the Comstock Ferre & Co. building in the historic town of Old Wethersfield, Connecticut. The Heirloom Market – an organic food company and café – is housed in the same building as the nation’s oldest seed company, founded in 1811. Still selling Baker Creek Heirloom seeds, the company has stuck to its roots (pun intended).

My visit was on a gloomy day and my intent was to try the golden latte at the market. I have been doing some research on warm turmeric drinks and heard about the golden latte made with turmeric, so I ordered one and added a yummy pear toast!

If you enjoy history, you will definitely want to check out this spot as well as the immediate area. The Old Wethersfield Historic District is the largest historic district in the State of Connecticut and contains over 150 structures built prior to 1850.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope I have inspired you to stop in historic Wethersfield or to combine some ingredients to create your own delicious toast. Join me Tuesday when I will talk about trendy turmeric drinks and share a recipe!
