Only 3 cafes have it so far.
Fewer than 5 Adelaide cafes have it, or the first review we have is under 120 days old. It also covers anything on a small share of cafes that is holding steady.
The stages run Emerging, Rising, Peaking, Mainstream, Fading. A trend can skip a stage or move back.

It's emerging: early days yet.
Adelaide's figures come from Google reviews and cafe menus (368 Adelaide cafes with a review or menu in the last 90 days). We don't read Adelaide cafes' posts yet, so this is a small sample and a drink shows up here later than it would in posts.
3suburbs with cafes that have it
By Nov 2026 (so far)
Each bar is the Adelaide cafes with a customer review of it that month; Nov 2026 is not over yet, so its bar is so far.
3 suburbs are known only from a menu, which we can't date, so they count in the last month.

Turmeric spiced milk poured over ice, sometimes with a shot of espresso. A typical iced turmeric latte, drawn from Adelaide cafes' menus and reviews, is built from the top down with straw (stir it through before you drink), cinnamon (a light dusting on top), ice (fills the cup before anything is poured), cold milk (about 220 ml, often oat or coconut, stirred golden; some add an espresso shot) and turmeric paste (turmeric, ginger, cinnamon and black pepper with honey, 1 to 2 spoonfuls). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical build, not one cafe's recipe. In all our data to 13 Nov 2026, The Froth has seen it at 3 Adelaide cafes across 3 suburbs, in Google reviews and menus. The 3 in "Where to get one" are the cafes with it on their current menu.
It is on 3 Adelaide cafe menus right now, including Tengo in Elizabeth Vale, Argo on the Parade in Norwood and Fourth Hill Providore in Verdun. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
A cafe counts for iced turmeric latte from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (13 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Adelaide with all of a trend's names added up. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
Of the cities The Froth reads, Adelaide has it at the biggest share of cafes: 0.8% of Adelaide cafes in the last 90 days, against 0.6% in Canberra and 0.5% in Brisbane.
