Total Time:15 minutes
Yield:1 serving 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy – almond, coconut, or oat milk work great)
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of black pepper (helps with turmeric absorption)
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (or to taste)
Optional: 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for extra creaminess)
Instructions
Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, combine the milk, turmeric, cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, and black pepper. If using coconut oil, add it now.
Simmer: Gently heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Bring it to a simmer, but don’t let it boil.
Whisk and Infuse: Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for about 5-10 minutes, whisking occasionally. This allows the spices to fully infuse into the milk.
Sweeten: Remove from heat and stir in honey or maple syrup to your desired sweetness.
Strain (Optional): If you prefer a smoother texture, you can strain the Herbal Golden Milk through a fine-mesh sieve.
Serve and Enjoy: Pour into a mug and enjoy the warmth and flavors of your homemade Herbal Golden Milk. You can garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of cardamom for extra flair.
