Golden Milk

Golden Milk is a comforting, aromatic beverage celebrated for its warming spices and health benefits. A soothing blend of unsweetened almond milk (or a mix of almond and coconut milk) is infused with vibrant turmeric, ginger, and a hint of cinnamon, creating a rich and flavorful elixir. For added creaminess, a touch of coconut oil enhances the texture, while a sweetener like maple syrup or honey balances the earthy spices.

Gently warmed to unlock the flavors, this golden-hued drink is perfect for relaxing moments or as a nourishing boost. Serve it fresh and savor its warming goodness!

COOKING TIME: 5 min

TOTAL TIME: 15 min

2 SERVING

Ingredients:

4 cup Unsweetened plain almond milk (DIY or store-bought – in alternative can use half of this quantity of coconut milk)
3 tbsp. Ground turmeric
1/2 tsp. Ground ginger (or 2 tsp freshly grated ginger*)
1 Whole Cinnamon stick (or 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon)
1 tbsp. Coconut oil (optional for richness)
Sweetener of choice (i.e. maple syrup, coconut sugar, or honey to taste)

Directions:

To a small saucepan, add the almond milk (or half almond and half coconut milk), turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, coconut oil (optional), and sweetener of choice (1 Tbsp of maple syrup for example).

Whisk to combine and warm over medium heat. Heat until hot to the touch but not boiling – about 4 minutes – whisking frequently. Turn off heat and taste to adjust flavor. Add more sweetener to taste or more turmeric or ginger for intense spice + flavor.

Serve immediately. Best when fresh, though leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat on the stovetop until hot.
