Golden Milk Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk)
- 1 tsp of ground turmeric
- 1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp of ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp of ground cardamom (for a fragrant, warming touch)
- 1 tbsp of coconut oil (optional, for extra creaminess)
- 1 tsp of honey or maple syrup (to taste)
- A pinch of black pepper (enhances the absorption of turmeric)
- A pinch of ground nutmeg (optional, for warmth)
- A dash of vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)
Instructions:
- Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, combine the almond milk, turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, coconut oil, and black pepper.
- Heat Gently: Heat the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring continuously. Make sure it doesn’t boil—just get it hot enough to be comfortably sipped.
- Sweeten: Once warmed, remove from heat and stir in the honey or maple syrup, and the vanilla extract if using.
- Blend (Optional): For an extra frothy texture, you can blend the mixture in a blender for 20-30 seconds.
- Serve: Pour into your favorite mug, sprinkle with a little nutmeg or cinnamon on top, and enjoy mindfully.
